Alex Scott Withdrawn from England Squad

England midfielder Alex Scott has withdrawn from the national squad due to a thigh injury, and could be out for two months, according to The Guardian Football. The 23-year-old made his full debut for England in a 7-0 win over Croatia on Saturday.

Scott excelled in his debut but felt discomfort before the game and the problem worsened after playing through the pain. He will miss England games on Tuesday and next month. The Bournemouth midfielder's injury is a blow for the club, who are unlikely to be delighted with how the situation has been handled.

Thomas Tuchel, England's manager, will have to adjust his midfield for the upcoming games against Croatia and Spain. Scott's emergence gives England and Declan Rice 'high level' competition, according to Tuchel. The manager warned that the youngster's emergence means Rice has to be aware there is competition for his place.

Scott's injury also means that other players will have to step up to fill the gap. James Garner and Myles Lewis-Skelly are the replacements for Scott, and another solution could be to play Morgan Rogers or Jude Bellingham in a deeper position.
