  • WHAT HAPPENED?

    The Three Lions have confirmed that Saka has been omitted from their travelling squad for the trip to Helsinki. The winger will return to Arsenal's set-up to recover from the hamstring injury that he suffered during the team's 2-1 loss to Greece earlier this week. It was also confirmed that Liverpool's Curtis Jones has stayed back in England due to a personal commitment.

    "Liverpool’s Jones remains in England owing to a personal commitment. A squad of 22 will now fly to Helsinki on Saturday afternoon ahead of tomorrow’s UEFA Nations League fixture."
