Just over a month ago, England had an abundance of right-back options with it arguably being Gareth Southgate's strongest position in terms of depth. Now, the Three Lions boss may have to consider alternate options after Reece James became the latest player to suffer an injury blow.
The Chelsea star was forced off midway through the second half of the Blues' 2-0 win over AC Milan in the Champions League on Tuesday night.

[We’ll need] 24-48 hours because it’s too early to tell you anything more than that."
It comes after Liverpool's Trent-Alexander Arnold had to be brought off at the Emirates Stadium on Sunday after suffering an ankle injury in the Reds' 3-2 defeat to Arsenal. After the match, Jurgen Klopp said Alexander-Arnold's injury "didn't look good", but he did have better news to share at his news conference on Tuesday.
