England sees five players withdraw from international squad ahead of Nations League

England announced that five players, including Declan Rice, Cole Palmer, Marcus Rashford, Kobbie Mainoo, and Tino Livramento, have withdrawn from their squad for upcoming Uefa Nations League matches. The withdrawals are for injury reasons, following consultations between club and national team medical staff. There is no formal withdrawal process for international squads outside of major tournaments, but Uefa requires that a 23-player matchday squad is submitted before the match. England's squad adjustments come during the ongoing international break.
