Liverpool's Lallana likely to miss England's upcoming fixtures

Adam Lallana could be forced to withdraw from the England national team for the upcoming clashes against Lithuania and Italy due to injury.

Lallana was subbed off at half-time in Liverpool's 2-1 defeat at the hands of Manchester United on Sunday and it was later revealed that the midfielder had suffered a groin problem.

The 26-year old is now set to undergo a scan on Monday in order to discover the full extent of the injury but it seems very likely that he will miss out on England's Euro2016 qualifier against Lithuania on Friday and the friendly with Italy four days later.

England boss Roy Hodgson has already seen a host of stars such as Fraser Forster, Ben Foster and Luke Shaw withdraw due to various injuries and the potential loss of Lallana will be another major blow for the 67-year old.
