Manchester United's Luke Shaw is pushing hard to regain fitness and secure his spot in the England squad after an injury-plagued season. The left-back, who has been sidelined since February, is eager to prove his readiness ahead of Euro 2024.
Gareth Southgate has kept Shaw in his provisional squad, signalling faith in the defender's ability to recover in time. "Luke's experience and quality are undeniable," Southgate said. "We're giving him every chance to be ready."
Shaw's Road to Recovery
The 28-year-old has faced multiple setbacks this campaign, limiting him to just 15 appearances for United. However, recent training sessions have shown promising signs of progress.
"It's been frustrating," Shaw admitted. "But I'm working harder than ever to get back where I belong - representing my country at the highest level."
England's Defensive Options
With Ben Chilwell also returning from injury, Southgate faces welcome selection headaches. The England manager must decide whether to risk Shaw or opt for more match-fit alternatives like Kieran Trippier or Joe Gomez.
Medical staff at St George's Park are closely monitoring Shaw's rehabilitation. A decision on his tournament participation is expected before England's June warm-up fixtures.
