England midfielder Phil Foden has “temporarily” left the Three Lions’ Euro 2024 camp in Germany and returned to the UK due to a pressing family matter, according to a statement from the Football Association.
Foden, a Manchester City player with 37 caps, has been a key part of England’s squad, starting in all three group stage matches, including the recent draw against Slovenia. Gareth Southgate’s team finished top of Group C with five points from three matches.
England’s last-16 match is scheduled to take place in Gelsenkirchen on Sunday at 17:00 BST, with their opponents to be determined after Wednesday’s final group games.
