England await Marc Guehi scan results after hip injury at Nottingham Forest
Manchester City defender Marc Guehi will have a hip scan on Sunday, casting doubt over his availability for England's Nations League matches against Croatia and Spain.
Manchester City centre-back Marc Guehi is set to undergo a scan on a hip complaint on Sunday, with his availability for England's upcoming Uefa Nations League fixtures against Croatia and Spain still to be determined. The 26-year-old was withdrawn at half-time of City's defeat at Nottingham Forest on Saturday.
City manager Enzo Maresca confirmed after the match that the defender asked to come off because of the injury, though he did not detail the problem. Guehi is understood to have been troubled by the hip issue in recent weeks, and his request to be replaced has raised questions over whether he can report for international duty this week.
England staff are expected to want to assess Guehi themselves before a final decision is reached, in addition to the results of City's tests. Head coach Thomas Tuchel has relied heavily on the former Crystal Palace captain since taking charge in January 2025.
The article notes Guehi started all but one of England's games at the World Cup and featured in all four of the team's Nations League fixtures in September and October, underlining his importance to Tuchel's side.
The source does not include any supporter comment on Guehi's condition or his chances of featuring against Croatia and Spain, so no fan reaction is reported here. His fitness remains unconfirmed pending the scan and England's own medical checks.
