Sturridge Ruled out of Action due to Thigh Injury
Daniel Sturridge has been ruled out due to a thigh injury ahead of England’s match in their UEFA EURO 2016 qualifier against Switzerland.
The Liverpool striker will now be unavailable for Monday’s qualifier due to the thigh injury he suffered in training.
Revealing the news, a spokesman of the English football association said: “Daniel Sturridge picked up an injury on his thigh in training. He has had a scan and will now return to Liverpool FC for treatment. He will play no part in the forthcoming Switzerland match.”
The FA also confirmed no replacement would be called up for Sturridge though Danny Welbeck is an available option.
Welbeck is due to be in Arsenal’s starting XI as a replacement for Olivier Giroud who is out for three months because of an ankle injury.
