REVEALED: Luke Shaw is the only player wearing a green bib shirt during England’s training session preparing for EURO 2024
The reasons behind Luke Shaw wearing a green bib during England’s training camp in Germany on Tuesday have now been revealed.
England were handed a significant double fitness boost ahead of their Euro 2024 opener after John Stones and Shaw trained with the first-team squad.
Shaw, who hasn’t played since February due to a hamstring ιnjury, will be a welcome addition for Gareth Southgate’s side given the lack of left-back’s in the squad.
As he trained with team-mates on Tuesday, fans were quick to spot that he was the only player to be wearing a green bib before learning the reasons why.
According to The Sun, Shaw was instructed to wear a green bib to mark him out as a player not to make contact with due to him being in a fragile state.
