Phil Foden, Cole Palmer and Ollie Watkins have withdrawn from the England squad for their upcoming Nations League fixtures.
Manchester City forward Foden, who was recently named PFA Player of the Year, was called up by interim England boss Lee Carsley, but did not join up with the squad because of illness.
Chelsea forward Palmer and Aston Villa striker Watkins both reported for duty at St George’s Park, but have returned to their respective clubs “to continue their rehabilitation from ongoing issues”, said the Football Association.
England face the Republic of Ireland in Dublin on Saturday, 7 September before hosting Finland at Wembley three days later.
