Newcastle United defender Tino Livramento has been ruled out of England's World Cup campaign with a calf injury, with Chelsea's Trevoh Chalobah called up to replace the full-back.
Livramento suffered a calf injury during training on Sunday. England begin their World Cup bid against Croatia on Wednesday.
The 23-year-old's involvement in the tournament had already been in doubt after he missed the final five weeks of the season with a thigh problem.
Livramento, who made his international debut under Sir Gareth Southgate in November 2024, has featured five times during Thomas Tuchel's reign, starting twice.
He came on at half-time during the 1-0 warm-up win over New Zealand but was left on the bench against Costa Rica.
Chalobah is on his way to England's camp in Kansas City and will join up with the squad after the Croatia match.
