Newcastle goalkeeper Nick Pope would also not honour his call-up, as he picked up an injury in Newcastle’s 2-1 triumph over Nottingham Forest on Friday.

Mason Mount also pulled out, as confirmed by Graham Potter. The 24-year-old missed Chelsea’s 2-2 draw against Everton due to injury and is presently in recuperation.
