Arsenal youngster Tafari Moore gets senior England chance

Arsenal youngster Tafari Moore has been training with the senior England squad.

The Mirror says Moore trained with the England senior squad on Saturday to cover for Luke Shaw, who was rested.

The Football Association said Shaw was absent because they were looking “to manage the workload of a player who missed the majority of last season".

So 19-year-old full-back Moore, who himself missed a lot of last season through injury, was given the chance to prove himself with the first team squad.
