Injury rules Rose out for England matches against Lithuania and Italy

Tottenham defender Danny Rose has withdrawn from the England squad to face Lithuania and Italy through injury, the Football Association has announced.

Rose was called into the squad after Luke Shaw withdrew on Saturday with a hamstring problem.

But the left-back has now been sent back to his club with an injury of his own.

An FA statement released on Wednesday night read: "Tottenham Hotspur's Danny Rose has withdrawn from the England camp through injury.

"The left-back will play no further part in preparation for the forthcoming fixtures against Lithuania and Italy and has returned to his club."
