Southgate was expecting to meet up with his squad this weekend to prepare for internationals against Italy and Denmark at Wembley, key fixtures in preparation for Euro 2020. This week saw the postponement of the Euro 2020 tournament until next June and July. With Europe's major soccer leagues in shutdown as the continent deals with an escalating death rate, Southgate said it is a time to support the unsung heroes. "The heroes will be the men and women who continue working tirelessly in our hospitals and medical centres to look after our friends and families. "They won't receive the individual acclaim, but we all know their importance is beyond anything we do on the pitch."
