Manchester City defender Marc Guehi has withdrawn from the England squad after picking up an injury in his club's defeat at Nottingham Forest.

Marc Guehi has withdrawn from the England squad after picking up an injury in Manchester City's 3-1 defeat at Nottingham Forest on Saturday. The centre-back was substituted at half-time, having requested to be replaced because of the injury. Manchester City manager Enzo Maresca did not specify what issue Guehi had sustained, but after undergoing scans, he was not deemed fit for England's upcoming camp.

Newcastle defender Dan Burn has been called up to replace Guehi. England manager Thomas Tuchel had previously indicated that several players were on standby should injuries occur before the international fixtures.

Guehi has been one of Tuchel's key defenders, starting in almost all of England's recent fixtures including the World Cup and recent Nations League matches. England play Croatia and Spain in their upcoming Nations League double header, with the results necessary to top their group and secure home advantage in the knockout stages next March.
