Jordan Pickford will become England’s leading appearance maker at major international tournaments against Denmark at Euro 2024.
The Everton goalkeeper will make his 21st appearance for the Three Lions at a major international competition in Frankfurt, surpassing Peter Shilton’s record.
Pickford made his debut for his country in 2017 in a draw with Germany at Wembley, and was included in Gareth Southgate’s 23-man squad for the 2018 World Cup in Russia.
The 30-year-old has since established himself as England’s number one, and has kept 10 clean sheets for his nation at major tournaments, the latest of which coming last Sunday against Serbia.
