England XI vs Denmark: Starting lineup, latest team news, squad, injury updates for Euros semi-final today
England have thrown Bukayo Saka back into the starting lineup as Gareth Southgate plots victory over Denmark for a place in the Euro 2020 final against Italy.
Saka was a star performer for the historic victory over Germany in the last-16 stage, only to pick up an injury in training to rule him out of the 4-0 thumping of Ukraine in the quarter-finals.
Jadon Sancho impressed in Saka’s place in Rome, but the versatile Arsenal youngster has been drafted back in to help combat Denmark’s wing-backs.
England, though, will stick with a back four having reverted back from the three-man defence for the win over Ukraine.
Declan Rice and Kalvin Phillips both came through the quarter-final without picking up the bookings that would have seen them suspended, meaning Jordan Henderson again has to be satisfied with a place on the bench, despite his goalscoring cameo in Rome.
Here is how we England will line up against Denmark at Wembley...
