After being called up by Gareth Southgate, Phil Jones would have been hoping to play a role in the two forthcoming internationals, against Germany and Lithuania.
Unfortunately, for Jones, those plans have been scuppered by injury.
It has been confirmed that Jones picked up an injury whilst participating in an England training session and is set to return to Manchester.
However, despite Jones injury it doesn`t look as if anyone else will be called into Gareth Southgate`s squad with the Football Association issuing a brief statement that read,
‘There are no immediate plans to call up a replacement but, with Gary Cahill suspended for Sunday`s game against Lithuania, Gareth Southgate will assess his options following tomorrow`s match.’
Hopefully Jones will have recovered sufficiently to play in Manchester United`s next fixture.
