England full-back Tino Livramento is expected to miss the World Cup due to an injury, according to reports from multiple outlets. The Athletic reports that Livramento, who plays for Newcastle United, has a calf injury and will therefore not be available for England’s major tournament campaign. Yahoo Sports, citing The Telegraph, reports that Livramento has suffered a hamstring injury and is expected to be ruled out of the tournament. Both accounts place Livramento with the England squad in North America at the time of the reports. The Athletic adds that, had he been fit, Livramento would have been in contention to make his World Cup debut in England’s opening match against Croatia on Wednesday. The reports agree that the injury prevents him from participating, though they differ on the specific muscle—calf versus hamstring—cited as the problem.
