Gareth Southgate Names First England Squad Since World Cup With Luke Shaw & Joe Gomez Recalled

England manager Gareth Southgate has recalled Manchester United defender Luke Shaw and Liverpool defender Joe Gomez to the Three Lions squad for the national team's first action since the World Cup as they prepare to face Spain in the new UEFA Nations League at Wembley.

The same 23-man squad will then play a friendly against Switzerland at Leicester's King Power Stadium a few days later.

Shaw has only played once for England since 2015 but has enjoyed a strong start to the club season despite Manchester United's ongoing troubles, while Gomez will be hoping to add to the three caps he has won since making his senior debut last year.
