Manchester City Phil Foden has withdrawn from the England squad and will miss the Premier League fixture against Liverpool next weekend after undergoing surgery for acute appendicitis.
Foden was a substitute in England's win at Italy on Thursday, before being taken off shortly after following Luke Shaw's red card. He would have hoped to have featured in the home fixture with Ukraine on Sunday, but City have confirmed that the winger has withdrawn from international duty.
England confirmed Foden had surgery on Sunday to remove his appendix, while City said in a statement, that Foden will now return to Manchester for recovery. He is definitely out of the Liverpool clash next weekend, and the club have not given a timeframe on how long he will be out for.

"Manchester City can confirm Phil Foden has left the England squad after undergoing surgery in London for acute appendicitis," the statement read.
"Phil will now return to Manchester to begin rehabilitation. He will not be fit for this weekend’s Premier League game at home to Liverpool and it is unclear at this stage how long he will be unavailable for.
"Everyone at Manchester City wishes Phil a speedy recovery."
England confirmed that there will be no replacement called up to replace Foden, given they faced Ukraine later on Sunday in their final fixture of the international break.
Foden's surgery follows the news that Erling Haaland had to withdraw from international duty with a groin problem, and has undergone tests at City's partner hospital in Barcelona. Pep Guardiola is likely to offer an update on the pair later this week ahead of the Liverpool fixture.
