Eight England Stars, Including Saka and Rice, Withdraw From Camp Before Japan Friendly
England suffered a major setback ahead of their friendly against Japan as eight players left the national team camp. High-profile names such as Bukayo Saka and Declan Rice returned to their clubs for medical checks. Noni Madueke also departed in a leg brace after the Uruguay draw. John Stones, Aaron Ramsdale, Fikayo Tomori, Dominic Calvert-Lewin and Adam Wharton complete the list of withdrawals. Manager Thomas Tuchel now faces a significant squad reshuffle. While the timing is far from ideal with the World Cup approaching, this offers fringe players a chance to stake their claim for upcoming selections.
