Raheem Sterling is LEFT OUT of Gareth Southgate's England squad for upcoming Euro 2024 qualifiers after a disappointing first season at Chelsea... with Crystal Palace star Eberechi Eze coming in to replace him

Raheem Sterling is the biggest high-profile casualty from Gareth Southgate's England squad for their upcoming Euro 2024 qualifiers.

The Three Lions boss has decided to leave the Chelsea winger out of the 26-man squad for next month's clashes with Malta and North Macedonia after a disappointing first season at Stamford Bridge.

Mail Sport reported yesterday that Southgate could look to omit Sterling from the team, after a season which has been impacted by numerous injuries, managerial changes at Chelsea and an incident at his Surrey home that resulted in him flying back from the World Cup.
