Everton midfielder Fabian Delph has withdrawn from the England national team squad.

The veteran will miss this week's qualifiers against Montenegro and Kosovo.

"The midfielder arrived with an injury but it was hoped he would be available to play a part in the Three Lions' forthcoming UEFA EURO 2020 qualifiers," said a statement on Tuesday night.

"However, it has now been decided that Delph is unlikely to feature and will return to his club for further rehabilitation."
