Anthony Gordon was substituted in the first half of Newcastle United‘s Champions League match against Athletic Club on Wednesday, leaving his possible inclusion in Thomas Tuchel’s England squad unclear.
The winger, who appeared short of full fitness, fell to the floor holding his hip and was replaced by Jacob Murphy in the 41st minute.
Eddie Howe’s men went into the break with a 1-0 lead thanks to Dan Burn‘s sublime header.
Newcastle began the night 11th in the Champions League table, knowing that a win could lift them as high as third if other results go their way.
