Manchester City defender Marc Guehi is a doubt for England's upcoming UEFA Nations League fixtures after suffering a hip injury. The 26-year-old was substituted at half-time during City's loss to Nottingham Forest on Saturday, with manager Enzo Maresca confirming the centre-back requested to leave the pitch due to the issue. Guehi has reportedly been troubled by the hip problem in recent weeks, and the fact that he asked to be substituted has increased concerns about his availability.
England are set to face Croatia at Wembley on Thursday, 12 November, before travelling to Madrid to take on World Cup winners Spain on Saturday, 15 November. Guehi will undergo a scan on Sunday, and England's medical staff will also assess him before a final decision is made. Thomas Tuchel, who appointed Guehi as a key player since becoming England head coach in January 2025, will be hoping the defender is passed fit.
Guehi started in all but one of England's World Cup matches and all four of the team's Nations League fixtures in September and October.
