Keegan puts faith in United magic

England have recalled Manchester United sensation Teddy Sheringham for the two Euro 2000 qualifiers next month in a widely expected move.

Sheringham returns to the national squad of 22 for the first time since the World Cup in France last summer. His goals helped United complete their treble and the 31 year old was instrumental in raising United to their historic finish against Bayern Munich in the Camp Nou on Wednesday night.

All in all new coach Kevin Keegan has included six playerss from the team hailed yesterday by 300,000 fans on an open top bus rude through the outskirts of Manchester.

The squad will train next week before meeting section leaders Sweden in a game the English cannot afford to lose. Sweden hold a 2-1 win over the English from last September and the game on June 5th is Keegan's first in charge since confirming a three year deal to take on the leadership of the national squad full time and leave Fulham. The same squad will travel to play Bulgaria in Sofia on June 8th.

The squad in full -

Goalkeepers - Seaman, Wright and Walker.

Defenders - Southgate, P Neville, G Neville, Ferdinand, Campbell, Keown, Le Saux, Woodgate Gray and Batty.

Midfielders - Sherwood, Redknapp, Scholes, Parlour and Sheringham.

Forwards - Heskey, Shearer, Cole and Fowler.
