The Manchester United player, who is a mainstay under Southgate’s command, was left out of the preliminary 33-man roster.
Despite this, he posed with conor Gallagher of Chelsea and Aaron Ramsdale of Arsenal, both of whom were also selected.
The £150 outfit that Rashford modeled consisted of a beige blazer and pants with a cream sweater worn under.

The Three Lions have been sponsored by M&S for a long time, and during the 2018 World Cup, Southgate memorably made the waistcoat his signature.Similarly, fоrmer England captain Jоhn Terry said that the team’s rоund оf 16 lоss tо Germany in 2010 was due tо the players’ decisiоn tо wear suits оn a hоt Sоuth African afternооn.
In the days leading up to the competition, Southgate will announce his final 26-man roster, but Rashford will not be among them.
Southgate stated, “These are of course difficult calls” when explaining his decision. Important players are the ones you’re mentioning.
“With Marcus, in that area of the pitch, I feel that other players have had better seasons, it’s as simple as that.”An online message from Rashford read: “Wishing Gareth and the boys all the best for the up and coming tournament.”
The United forward scored twice in the 2022 World Cup and was named to Southgate’s national team for all three of his prior international competitions.Southgate said in a private phone conversation that Rashford appreciated his choice, despite the rejection.
“He will be extremely let down,” Southgate stated.
Playing in tournaments is the reason you play international football, and he wants to play for England. He loves playing for England.
Yet again, he was quite polite. I told him, “You need to score a couple of goals this weekend to make things right.”
