A report claims that Adam Lallana is unlikely to feature in England's World Cup squad as he will play no further part in Liverpool's Premier League campaign.

England boss Gareth Southgate is reportedly preparing to be without injured Liverpool midfielder Adam Lallana for the World Cup finals.

The 29-year-old suffered a hamstring strain in the Reds' 2-1 win at Crystal Palace on Saturday, lasting just six minutes as a second-half sub before being replaced.

Lallana left Selhurst Park on crutches, and boss Jurgen Klopp provided a pessimistic response after the match when asked if he expects the former Southampton man to make a swift recovery.

According to The Mirror, the latest injury sustained by Lallana is serious enough to keep him out for the rest of the campaign, leaving Southgate with little choice but to overlook the midfielder for World Cup selection.

Southgate is due to name his 23-man squad shortly after the end of the Premier League campaign on May 13.
