The agent of Everton defender Michael Keane has hit out England coach Gareth Southgate over his selection snub.

Jake Mallen, who represents the ex-Manchester United and Burnley centre back, felt omitting Keane but including Tottenham's Eric Dier and Wolves captain Conor Coady was wrong.

Mallen initially quote-tweeted an article which reported Southgate saying he would not pick players based on reputation alongside two confused emojis.

In a follow up, the agent was asked what he thought of the squad.

He wrote: "Dier & Coady over Michael Keane. Crazy!"
