Rashford left out of England's provisional Euro 2024 squad

Marcus Rashford was the most notable omission when England manager Gareth Southgate named his provisional Euro 2024 squad on Tuesday, with experienced midfielder Jordan Henderson also missing out.

Several uncapped players, including Liverpool's Curtis Jones and Jarell Quansah, Everton defender Jarrad Branthwaite, and Crystal Palace's Adam Wharton, made the provisional list of 33.

Southgate will reduce his squad to 26 by the June 7 deadline.

The exclusion of Rashford and Henderson were the biggest surprises, given Southgate's loyalty to them and their roles in previous tournament runs.

Rashford, 26, has 60 caps and 17 goals, including three at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, but has struggled to find form this season, scoring only seven Premier League goals for Manchester United.

Chelsea forward Raheem Sterling was also left out, but his teammate Cole Palmer was included following a fantastic season.

Despite missing a significant amount of time due to injury, Manchester United's Luke Shaw is also named to the provisional squad.

Squad:

Goalkeepers: Dean Henderson, Jordan Pickford, Aaron Ramsdale, James Trafford

Defenders: Jarrad Branthwaite, Lewis Dunk, Joe Gomez, Marc Guehi, Ezri Konsa, Harry Maguire, Jarell Quansah, Luke Shaw, John Stones, Kieran Trippier, Kyle Walker

Midfielders: Trent Alexander-Arnold, Conor Gallagher, Curtis Jones, Kobbie Mainoo, Declan Rice, Adam Wharton

Forwards: Jude Bellingham, Jarrod Bowen, Eberechi Eze, Phil Foden, Jack Grealish, Anthony Gordon, Harry Kane, James Maddison, Cole Palmer, Bukayo Saka, Ivan Toney, Ollie Watkins
