Kyle Walker is set to miss England’s first game against Iran on 21st November as he is recovering from a groin injury. The Manchester City defender was a doubt after undergoing surgery last month but Gareth Southgate decided to include him in the squad.
When Walker was asked about his availability for their game against Iran, he said, ‘That is down to the manager. I think the first game is a little too short but after that I will be good and ready to go.’ England has quite a couple of options at RB and it is rumored that Southgate is going to pick Kieran Trippier to start against Iran.
