England has been handed a huge blow as a key player has stopped training with the first team amid the Euro 2024.

England has managed 4 points in their first two matches but has lacked conviction in areas. The Three Lions players have been hugely scrutinized for their lacklustre performance against Denmark.

They are set to play Slovenia in the final group stages match on Tuesday, but ahead of that, Gareth Southgate has been rocked.

As per reports in England, England left-back Luke Shaw is not training with the team. Southgate had intended to use Shaw in England's final group-stage match to help him regain fitness before the round of 16. However, Shaw trained indoors on Friday, making his participation unlikely.

The Manchester United defender's inclusion in the England squad baffled many pundits. The 26-year-old was injured and didn't take part for the Red Devils in the latter part of the season. But it was a surprise when Southgate named Shaw among the 26 final players for the continental tournament.

In Shaw's absence, Kieran Trippier from Newcastle has stepped in. Trippier, a right-footed right-back, has struggled to provide an offensive threat on the left side.

Shaw has been sidelined for over four months due to a hamstring injury. His last appearance was on February 18.

England's next match is against Slovenia, following a frustrating 1-1 draw with Denmark. Despite being top of the table, a loss on Tuesday could change their standing drastically.

The Euro 2020 runners-up have four points and are unbeaten. Their closest rivals, Denmark and Slovenia, both have two points each. If England lose to Slovenia and Denmark beat Serbia, England will drop to third place.
