The defender suffered a knee injury during today's training session. The player was immediately taken to the hospital, where his injured knee was examined. The results of the tests are not yet known.

The 33-year-old veteran hopes to be called up to the England national team for the European Championship taking place this year. The player was given hope by an invitation to play in friendly matches against Sweden last week. However, any more serious injury to the player would force coach S.G. Erikkson to look for a new player.

After the same friendly matches, the player also underwent X-rays when he was struck by the ball while running. However, no fractures were found at that time.
