Marcus Rashford becomes England's latest injury casualty

The Manchester United striker is the latest England player to pull out of Gareth Southgate's squad this week.

Marcus Rashford is the sixth player to have withdrawn from Gareth Southgate's England squad this week.

Here, Press Association Sport takes a look at the six unavailable players for the Three Lions' Euro 2020 qualification opener against the Czech Republic.

Despite being on the bench against Schalke in the Champions League last midweek, manager Pep Guardiola made it clear that the centre-back is troubled by a groin injury and as a result omitted him from his FA Cup squad.

Fabian Delph (Manchester City)

Delph was replaced less than an hour into Manchester City's FA Cup quarter-final win at Swansea last weekend and withdrew from the squad with an unspecified issue.
