Harry Maguire’s mum ‘disgusted’ as Man Utd star left out of England squad | Football | Sport

Harry Maguire’s mother has declared she’s ‘absolutely disgusted’ by her son’s exclusion from the England squad. Maguire, 33, has been left out of Thomas Tuchel’s 26-man squad, which will be unveiled on Friday morning.

“I’ve been left shocked and gutted by the decision. I’ve loved nothing more than putting that shirt on and representing my country over the years. I wish the players, all the best this summer.”

His mother, Zoe, required far fewer words to convey her view. On X, she wrote: “Absolutely disgusted.”

It was Maguire’s mother who ‘started crying’ when he returned to the England squad in March following an 18-month hiatus. Discussing his recall at the time, the 33-year-old said: “It’s amazing. It’s something I’ve missed.

“When you don’t get picked, when you’ve been a regular for six or seven years, it’s tough. I spoke to the manager and he told me I was in.”

“I phoned my family. My mum was on holiday and she was crying. I’m in a position now in my career where it is not so much about myself.

“I’m 33. If I play one minute at the World Cup or every game, I will do everything to make sure this country is successful.”

However, the only football Maguire will be involved in this summer will be during United’s pre-season preparations. The Red Devils are scheduled to tour Europe for a series of friendlies while England compete to end 66 years of heartache in North America.
