Reason Luke Shaw is only player to wear green bib in England training ahead of Euro 2024

Luke Shaw was the only player to wear a green bib in England training ahead of the European Championships.

Both Shaw and John Stones trained on Tuesday as England stepped up the preparations for their opening game of Euro 2024 against Serbia on Sunday.

Southgate has had a plethora of injury issues to contend with ahead of the tournament but fortunately saw his entire 26-man squad train on Tuesday.

Stones had been forced off with a knock halfway through Friday's 1-0 friendly defeat to Iceland while Shaw stepped up his rehabilitation from a hamstring issue that has plagued him since mid-February.

However, the United star was made to wear a green bib for the training session at the Ernst-Abbe-Sportfeld in Jena, to identify him as a player not to make contact with because of his fragile physical state.

Shaw has 31 caps for his country, scoring three goals including the opener in the Three Lions Euro 2020 final defeat to Italy.

It is not yet known when the United defender will be available for England in the tournament.

Some reports suggest the left-back could feature against Denmark on June 20 or the final group-stage match against Slovenia five days later.

Shaw admitted that mistakes were made by him and United’s medical staff when recovering from his injury.

“I felt something against Aston Villa and came off at half-time at Villa Park,” Shaw said. “It’s kind of ­everyone’s fault.

“Partly my fault, partly medical staff, I think everyone would admit that.

“I didn’t train the whole week. The scan came back and there wasn’t too much there.

“But I didn’t train all week, then trained the day before the game. If the manager asks me to play, I’m never going to say no. I shouldn’t have played.”
