Cole Palmer has not joined up with the England squad, as he continues to be assessed after suffering up a muscle injury.
The Chelsea star missed his side’s defeat to Arsenal on Sunday, having picked up the issue in training ahead of the match, and Enzo Maresca revealed that Palmer was unlikely to be available for international duty.
"I don't think [he will be fit for England] to be honest," the Chelsea boss said.
"His injury is from yesterday's session. It's a muscular problem, the scan is planned for Monday morning."
Palmer was named in Thomas Tuchel’s first England squad for upcoming World Cup qualifiers against Albania and Latvia, but the Three Lions confirmed that Palmer did not arrive with the rest of the squad or train on Tuesday.
A statement said: “A senior squad of 26 players will be joined by MU21 trio Taylor Harwood-Bellis, Adam Wharton and Liam Delap for this afternoon's training session at St. George's Park.
“Cole Palmer remains with Chelsea for further assessment on an injury sustained in training ahead of his club's fixture at Arsenal last Sunday.”
