Uncapped Newcastle United midfielder Jack Colback will miss England's opening Euro 2016 qualifier against Switzerland due to injury, manager Roy Hodgson revealed on Wednesday.

Colback, 24, sat out England's 1-0 friendly win over Norway at Wembley Stadium with a knock and Hodgson said afterwards that he had been sent back to his club to receive treatment.

"Jack Colback has had to leave us. He took a very nasty kick on the back of the calf," Hodgson told his post-game press conference.

"We were hoping he would train with us, but he can't do that, so it's better to send him back to Newcastle."

Back-up goalkeeper Ben Foster has also withdrawn from the squad for Monday's game in Basel after injuring his thumb in training.
