England midfielder Jordan Henderson has a “really bad” wrist injury after celebrating his side’s dramatic World Cup last-16 win over Mexico, Yankee Scores reports.
Three Lions manager Thomas Tuchel revealed this in his post-match interview.
Henderson appeared to take a clumsy fall from the advertising hoardings at Mexico City’s Azteca Stadium after England’s 3-2 win and was pictured leaving the pitch on a stretcher.
The 36-year-old Brentford midfielder has had just six minutes as a substitute in England’s Group L win over Panama at the World Cup.
“Jordan [Henderson] just fell over and injured his wrist. It looks really bad,” said England manager Thomas Tuchel on BBC One after his side’s win on Monday.
“It’s a quite serious injury and it doesn’t fit to the evening that Jordan is now not with us. The doctor told me he is in hospital.”
The former Liverpool midfielder will be joined by a member of England’s backroom staff and will not fly back with the squad on Monday.
England’s next game is the quarter-final against Norway in Miami on Saturday at 22:00 BST and you can follow that on BBC Radio 5 Live and the BBC Sport website and App.
Henderson could join Reece James, who injured his hamstring in England’s opener, on the sidelines.
Jarell Quansah will miss out after picking up a straight red card in England’s win over Mexico.
