Euro 2024: Why Tottenham and Real Madrid target will not be playing for England today

England manager Gareth Southgate is reportedly considering changing the system and shape of his team following the suspension of Crystal Palace and Tottenham target Marc Guehi.

Guehi has played every minute of England’s campaign so far, but he will be missing for this match due to an accumulation of yellow cards. With Harry Maguire left out of the squad due to injury, the Crystal Palace star has stepped in to fill the void, starting alongside John Stones in each of the Three Lions’ four matches in Germany.

There have been a few star performers in the England team, including Jude Bellingham, who scored the first goal for the Three Lions and also rescued the team in the last round, as well as Declan Rice. There is a chance for Guehi to be named one of the Players of the Tournament for Gareth Southgate's side, given how well he’s filled the void created by Harry Maguire's absence.

LondonWorld has been told that Madrid has identified the Eagles defender as a perfect replacement for Nacho, who has left for Saudi Arabia. Sky Sports reports further that both Madrid and other European giants are looking at him.

Last summer, Tottenham and Arsenal had a look at him, though LondonWorld has been told he decided against a move to give himself more playing time, which has ultimately paid off with him getting his chance to play for England at the Euros.

Why he will not be playing today: 

Guehi will serve a one-match suspension today as a result of a yellow card he picked up just three minutes into last Sunday’s last-16 win over Slovakia. He had earlier been booked against Slovenia.
