England boss Southgate: Young squad ready to announce themselves

Gareth Southgate is confident a number of his young England players are ready to "announce themselves" at next month's World Cup.

Southgate is taking the third youngest England squad ever, with Gary Cahill being the only player possessing more than 40 caps.

"There are so many possible players in this group that it could be that moment for them," said Southgate.

"From John Stones and Harry Maguire, to Ruben (Loftus-Cheek) to Dele Alli, to Raheem Sterling. Harry Kane, Marcus Rashford - there are any number of them that could announce themselves."
