Defender Marc Guehi is expected to miss England's final two World Cup qualifying games after suffering a foot injury in Crystal Palace's midweek Conference League win that left him unable to walk.

Palace boss Oliver Glasner confirmed the extent of the injury on Sunday before their Premier League match at home to Brighton, saying Guehi would miss the game with "a heavy bone bruise".

The incident happened at the end of the 3-1 win over AZ Alkmaar on Thursday as the Palace captain conceded a yellow card for a foul. "Overnight he couldn't sleep, it was so painful and the next day we assessed him and it was a heavy bone bruise," Glasner told Sky Sports.

"He was walking on crutches the last two days and couldn't even step on his foot. Fortunately nothing is broken, but at the moment he can't even walk. It looks like he will miss England's games, but after, maybe in 10-14 days hopefully he can return to training and be available again."

England, who have already qualified for next year's World Cup, will face Serbia at Wembley on Thursday before playing Albania in Tirana next Sunday. England's players are due to report for duty on Monday, and Guehi had been selected in Thomas Tuchel's squad on Friday alongside fellow centre-backs John Stones, Ezri Konsa and Jarell Quansah.
