England national soccer team will play host to Chile and Germany at Wembley without the services of Manchester United pair of Danny Welbeck and Micheal Carrick following their Achilles and knee injuries respectively.
The pair have been withdrawn from the England squad as Roy Hodson’s men prepare to take on Chile and Germany at the ceremonial home of football, Wembley.
Danny Welbeck is suffering from a knee injury that kept him out of his club since October, while Carrick has been succumbing to an Achilles injury since their Premier League triumphant over the league toppers Arsenal at the weekend.
“Danny Welbeck and Micheal Carrick have both withdrawn from the England squad due to injury,” The FA said in a statement on their website.
“The Manchester United duo featured in last month’s World cup qualifier against Poland but are ruled out as Roy Hodgson’s men gather for two games at Wembley Stadium.
England will play Chile on Friday before hosting Germany on Tuesday.
