Joe Gomez withdraws from England duty due to ankle injury

Joe Gomez withdraws from the England squad and returns to Liverpool for further assessment of the injury suffered in Friday's 1-0 friendly win over the Netherlands.

England have confirmed that Liverpool defender Joe Gomez has withdrawn from the squad due to an ankle injury.

The 20-year-old is back at his club for further assessment of the knock he suffered in Friday's 1-0 friendly win over the Netherlands.

Gomez sustained the injury about 10 minutes into his third senior national appearance as the Three Lions overcame the Oranje in Amsterdam.

England have no plans to call up a replacement for their next friendly, against Italy at Wembley Stadium on Tuesday, stating that the squad "has been reduced to 24 players".

Gomez has played 29 times for Jurgen Klopp's side in all competitions this season.
