Shaw 'fit and ready' to start for England in semi-final
The Independent
|July 09, 2024
Luke Shaw says he is fit to start England's Euro 2024 semi-final against the Netherlands tomorrow having revealed a recent setback in training meant he feared his tournament was over before it had even started.
The 28-year-old endured his “most frustrating season” to date having dealt with “injury after injury”, restricting him to just 15 appearances for Manchester United. Shaw suffered a hamstring injury in mid-February, from which he hoped to recover before May’s FA Cup final, only to suffer a tear that laid him low for a further six weeks and made him a doubt for the Euros.
Gareth Southgate took a calculated gamble by naming him in England’s 26-man squad for the tournament, with the left-back making his first appearance in 139 days off the bench in Saturday’s quarter-final shoot-out win against Switzerland. “The last four months have been really tough,” the Euro 2020 final goalscorer said.
