KIERAN TRIPPIER admits he has been through a "difficult moment" ahead of Euro 2024 but insists he is "ready to go" for his fourth tournament as an England player.
The Newcastle defender suffered a serious calf injury that forced him to miss two months towards the end of the club season but he captained the Three Lions at St James' Park on Monday night.
And with fitness issues plaguing Gareth Southgate's defensive planning, Trippier looks certain to play a key role in Germany.
He said: "Am I ready to start? I suppose you'll have to ask Gareth. I'm fit. If I pick the team, then I put myself in it.
"That's up to Gareth, but I think everyone knows me by now, and whether I play or I don't play, I'll be ready.
