Injured Tayo Edun Withdraws From England U17s World Cup Roster

Fulham’s Tayo Edun has withdrawn from England’s Under 17s squad ahead of their World Cup opener on Saturday against Guinea, after suffering a groin injury.

The news will come as a big blow to manager Neil Dewsnip as the youngster can cover several positions in defense and midfield.

“Unfortunately he has a problem with his groin that will rule him out of the tournament,” said Neil Dewsnip.

“It’s hugely disappointing for everyone involved and we all wish him a speedy and full recovery. ”

Manchester City defender Cameron Humphreys has been handed a late call - up to replace the crocked Anglo - Nigerian starlet.
