England await Guehi scan results after injury concern

Manchester City defender Marc Guehi is set to undergo a scan on a hip issue on Sunday to assess his fitness for potential England duty this week. The 26-year-old was substituted at half-time during City's defeat to Nottingham Forest on Saturday and informed manager Enzo Maresca of his condition, causing concern for England's upcoming fixtures.

While the exact nature of Guehi's injury remains unclear, it is known that he has been dealing with the problem over the past few weeks. The fact that he requested to be substituted has raised doubts about his availability for England's UEFA Nations League matches against Croatia and Spain. Guehi, who played all but one of England's matches at the World Cup and all four of their September and October Nations League fixtures, is considered a crucial player for manager Thomas Tuchel.

The defender's form for City has been consistent, starting in almost all of their games since Tuchel's appointment as England head coach in January 2025. England are scheduled to face Croatia at Wembley on November 12th before traveling to Madrid to take on World Cup winners Spain on November 15th.
