England World Cup 2018 squad numbers revealed as Gareth Southgate drops hint to his starting XI in Russia
England football have released their squad numbers for the World Cup 2018 in Russia, with Jordan Pickford confirmed, as expected, to hold the all-important No 1 shirt.
Gareth Southgate ’s other choices have similarly shed light on a number of other key positions up for grabs, with
Tottenham Hotspur ’s Danny Rose , rather than Manchester United ’s Ashley Young given the No 3 shirt, indicating he will be England’s first-choice left-back.
On the right, Kieran Trippier takes the No 12 shirt ahead of Trent Alexander-Arnold with 22, with Kyle Walker wearing No 2 - not No 4 which he has been wearing in the last few squads - although he is still almost certain to continue on the right of a back three.
