Arsenal star Bukayo Saka withdraws from England squad over injury

Because of injury, Arsenal winger Bukayo Saka has withdrawn from the Three Lions squad ahead of England’s upcoming friendly matches against Brazil and Belgium.
“Bukayo Saka has left the England camp and returned to his club for continued rehabilitation,” the Football Association said in a statement on Thursday.
According to the Football Association, the 22-year-old reported to the national team’s camp with an injury, which consequently kept him out of training since he arrived at St George’s Park.
He has subsequently returned to Arsenal to continue his rehabilitation. The Gunners face Manchester City in a crucial Premier League title race at the Etihad Stadium on March 31.
England face Brazil at Wembley on Saturday before hosting Belgium at the same venue on March 26.
“No further replacements are planned as a 25-man England squad continue their preparation for the forthcoming internationals with Brazil and Belgium,” the statement added.
