James Maddison has withdrawn from the England squad for the Euro 2024 qualifiers against Malta and North Macedonia with an ankle injury.
The news was confirmed by Tottenham Hotspur, who said the star would remain at the club to recover from the blow he suffered in the 4-1 defeat to Chelsea on Monday night.
Spurs posted on X (formerly Twitter): ‘We can confirm that James Maddison has been withdrawn from the England squad due to an ankle injury.
‘The midfielder will not take part in the Three Lions’ UEFA EURO 2024 qualifiers against Malta and North Macedonia and will remain at Hotspur Way for rehabilitation with the Club’s medical staff.’
It means the playmaker will miss Spurs’ lunchtime trip to Wolves on Saturday.
Maddison went to ground untouched in the penalty area in the first half against the Blues and limped off before half-time – as did Micky van de Ven, who was forced off with a hamstring problem.
