England boss Roy Hodgson has said that he is disappointed in the wake of the news that Jack Wilshere will miss six weeks of football following a hairline fracture.
The Arsenal midfielder was taken off after the hour mark while on international duty, having overcome a strong challenge from defender Daniel Agger earlier in the game.
However, his club have revealed today that the World Cup hopeful will now be out of action for a lengthy period because of a fracture to his foot.
"It's always sad when you have a player come from his club, you use him in international duty and then he gets a injury," Hodgson said after hearing the news, according to talkSPORT.
"It's very sad. I'm disappointed, for Jack in particular and I'm disappointed for Arsenal.
"Unfortunately these things happen in a game of football. It was an honest challenge but he took a nasty kick and I can only hope he recovers as quickly as possible."
England get their World Cup campaign underway against Italy in Brazil this June.
