Harry Maguire hands England a boost in his Euro 2020 fitness race as he says ankle injury is 'getting better' after Gareth Southgate admitted it will be a 'tight' call whether Man United star can play at this summer's tournament

Harry Maguire has revealed his ankle injury is 'improving and getting better' as he fights to be fit for England's European Championship campaign.

The 28-year-old central defender has been sidelined since picking up the knock during Manchester United's Premier League win at Aston Villa on May 9.

He missed United's defeat to Villarreal in the Europa League final last week and England boss Gareth Southgate has admitted it will be a 'tight' call on whether Maguire can be involved at Euro 2020, with the Three Lions kicking off their group games against Croatia on June 13.
