Alex Scott Withdraws From the England Squad After Picking Up a Tendon Injury in the 7-0 Win Over Croatia
Alex Scott is withdrawing from the England squad after sustaining a tendon injury during the 7-0 victory over Croatia.
The damage was picked up in the match itself, an outcome that has frustrated a coaching staff already managing a congested fixture list.
Scott could miss several weeks, a period that would cover the immediate build-up to the tournament and leave a significant gap in England’s midfield options.
He joins a growing injury list, and England now face a selection exercise that was already difficult before his withdrawal.
