He isn’t the only one who has opted for a new look at Euro 2020 because England’s Phil Foden has also caught the eye.

Nonetheless, Xhaka will no doubt stand out more when he takes to the field next at the European Championships.

Switzerland take on Italy on Wednesday, with Roberto Mancini’s side brushing aside Turkey in their first encounter.
