England call up Trevoh Chalobah after Livramento injury

England have confirmed a defensive injury blow ahead of their opening World Cup match against Croatia. Newcastle defender Tino Livramento will miss the tournament after a calf injury. Thomas Tuchel has called up Chelsea defender Trevoh Chalobah as his replacement.

The withdrawal ends Livramento's chance to feature in his first World Cup, a disappointment for the Magpies defender. Chalobah joins the squad with limited preparation time.
