Mainoo was also given a legacy cap by England manager Gareth Southgate as a thank you.

In 2019, the FA officially adopted the commemorative item to commemorate the 1000th national team game.

Despite scoring 48 goals in 80 appearances for England, good friend Lineker is still waiting to obtain his own legacy cap.

In the podcast The Rest Is Football, the former Leicester hero complimented Shearer and said he “didn’t know it was a thing.”

He was forced to make fun of his friend’s gift, though, by joking, “We were all at Wembley for the England vs. Brazil game.”

“To celebrate Terry Venables’ life, a unique celebration was held, and our very own Alan Shearer even accepted his legacy England cap.

“Alan, please explain what that is, as I don’t currently own one. I had no idea that it even existed!

“I wasn’t quite sure what it was; I had to do some digging about,” Shearer said.

“It is my 1,040th time representing England, and that is the significance of the legacy cap.” I have no idea what the remaining numbers are!

“I think they do it in terms of ability, Alan,” quips Lineker.
