(Reuters) - Everton goalkeeper Jordan Pickford has withdrawn from England's squad for their upcoming World Cup qualifiers against Malta and Slovakia with a muscle injury, the Football Association said on Tuesday.
The uncapped 23-year-old sustained the injury during Everton's 2-0 Premier League defeat by Chelsea at the weekend and has returned to his club for treatment, the FA said in a statement.
