This news is a setback for both the player and the national team, as Mainoo was anticipated to play a pivotal role in the forthcoming games against Greece and Finland.
England is scheduled to face Greece at Wembley Stadium on October 10, 2024, followed by an away match against Finland at the Helsinki Olympic Stadium on October 13, 2024. These matches are crucial as England seeks to enhance their standing in the Nations League.
Mainoo's journey with the England national team has been remarkable. The 18-year-old midfielder received his first senior call-up in March 2024, following impressive performances at the Under-21 level. His inclusion in Gareth Southgate's squad for friendlies against Brazil and Belgium marked a significant milestone in his emerging career.
Mainoo made his senior debut for England on March 23, 2024, in a friendly match against Brazil at Wembley Stadium. Although the team suffered a 1-0 defeat, Mainoo's performance was commendable, highlighting his potential on the international stage. He continued to impress with a standout display in a 2-2 draw against Belgium, where he was named man of the match.
