From standing with his mates at Euro 2016 to playing in a World Cup semi-final on Wednesday, Harry Maguire is a man emboldened by having Three Lions on his shirt.

Emerging as one of England’s most reliable defenders, Maguire has admirers at the Premier League’s top table yet still possesses the air of a man who has won a cereal packet competition to play for his country.

Last week he was interviewed by the FA’s YouTube channel and gave a word-perfect rendition of ‘We’re On Our Way’, the England soundtrack which has followed the team around Russia.

If the Leicester centre-half was not playing against Sweden last weekend, he would probably be in Samara watching from the terraces with his parents, brothers Laurence and Joe, sister Daisy, girlfriend Fern, and his mates.

Maguire epitomises the new era of “good tourists” flourishing under Gareth Southgate and personifies the change in mentality that is winning hearts and minds.
