The England squad numbers have been revealed.

Gareth Southgate allocating them after arriving at his final 26 man squad.

After having won 3-0 against Bosnia & Herzegovina on Monday at St James’ Park.

It was a wake up call for the England set-up as they lost 1-0 to Iceland at Wembley on Friday night.

Saturday morning seeing Gareth Southgate confirming these England squad numbers for Euro 2024:

1 Jordan Pickford

2 Kyle Walker

3 Luke Shaw

4 Declan Rice

5 John Stones

6 Marc Guéhi

7 Bukayo Saka

8 Trent Alexander-Arnold

9 Harry Kane

10 Jude Bellingham

11 Phil Foden

12 Kieran Trippier

13 Aaron Ramsdale

14 Ezri Konsa

15 Lewis Dunk

16 Conor Gallagher

17 Ivan Toney

18 Anthony Gordon

19 Ollie Watkins

20 Jarrod Bowen

21 Eberechi Eze

22 Joe Gomez

23 Dean Henderson

24 Cole Palmer

25 Adam Wharton

26 Kobbie Mainoo

If we assume the England squad numbers are in preferential order, with 1-11 his ideal line-up, then Gareth Southgate would ideally like to play this starting eleven:

Pickford

Walker, Stones, Guehi, Shaw

Rice, Alexander-Arnold

Saka, Bellingham, Foden

Kane

As you can see, Newcastle United duo Kieran Trippier and Anthony Gordon are numbers 12 and 18 respectively.

With Luke Shaw’s injury issues, it looks all but certain that Trippier will start against Serbia in eight days time, whilst interesting to see what plans Gareth Southgate has for Gordon.
