Euro 2024: Major injury blow for England ahead second round cracker with Slovakia

The three lions of England could be without defender Kieran Trippier when they play Slovakia in the Round of 16 at the ongoing Euro 2024.

Trippeir is a big doubt for the cracker after missing training again yesterday just two days before the match against Slovakia.

Recall that Trippier is nursing a calf injury, but started each of England’s three matches in the tournament.

If he is unable to prove his fitness before Sunday’s game, Gareth Southgate will turn to Ezri Konsa as a makeshift left-back ahead of Liverpool’s versatile defender Joe Gomez.

Trippier missed training on Tuesday and again when England conducted a full training session behind closed doors, as is routine in the tournament, on Friday.
