The former Man City star has had 20 goals from 81 caps for England and scored in the opening World Cup 2022 win against Iran.
As of now, it remains to be confirmed if Sterling can be selected for the squad against France, given that he has missed most of the trainings for the coming clash.
Sterling’s return to the squad does give Southgate another attacking option for Saturday’s crunch match.
However, Bukayo Saka and Phil Foden both impressed in the victory over Senegal and could start again on Saturday with Harry Kane in attack.
