Dominic Calvert-Lewin is unfortunately not going to have the international break that he would have wanted.
The Everton striker has been on the sidelines for the whole of the 2022/23 campaign so far after picking up an injury shortly before the opening match against Chelsea at Goodison Park. With the England squad now congregating for the last time before Gareth Southgate makes his picks for the World Cup this winter, the Blues man is potentially running out of time to stake his claim to travel to Qatar.
The 25-year-old returned to training at Finch Farm recently, but was left out of the squad to face West Ham United at the weekend. Frank Lampard later confirmed that was just a precaution, to make completely sure that the forward has overcome his latest issue.
