England fans are calling for a shock player to be included in Gareth Southgate's Euro 2024 squad.

Southgate has hinted that uncapped players could still force their way into his squad for this summer's tournament in Germany.

One of the uncapped players could be Kobbie Mainoo who has impressed for Manchester United since making his full Premier League debut this season.

The 18-year-old delivered a sensational outing in the middle of the park in his side's 3-0 win over Everton at Goodison Park back in November.

Man United fans are already convinced he's captain material following his gesture against Aston Villa.

Despite his tender age, he's become a regular fixture under Erik ten Hag and continued to impress in a Red Devils shirt as he starred against Wigan Athletic in the FA Cup.

His outing in midfield garnered praise from fans online as they want him in the England team for Euro 2024

England supporters like the idea of Mainoo playing alongside Declan Rice and Jude Bellingham in midfield.

One X user wrote: "Obviously not an amazing level tonight, but Kobbie Mainoo... Going to be one hell of an asset for England in the future alongside the likes of Rice/Bellingham."

A second tweeted: "Kobbie Mainoo for England at the euros, I’ve seen enough."

A third added: "Watching Wigan vs Man United last night. Seriously impressed with Kobbie Mainoo’s performance. He needs to be in England team."

A fourth said: "It would be in England and Southgate’s best interest to take Kobbie Mainoo to the Euros, especially in the absence of proper DMs."

A fifth commented: "England have Jude Bellingham and Kobbie Mainoo - dare you not win something, Southgate."

The Man United academy product has made nine appearances this season since being thrusted into the starting line-up.

He's enhanced his budding reputation with every performance as England fans want him in the international set up.
