Chelsea defender Trevoh Chalobah has been called up to England's World Cup squad after a tournament-ending injury suffered by Tino Livramento.
Standard Sport understands that Newcastle right-back Livramento sustained a muscle injury in training that will see him fly home, ending his maiden World Cup campaign before the first match.
Chelsea centre-back Chalobah, who can also deputise at right-back, has been called up as Livramento's replacement.

FIFA permits teams at the World Cup to replace injured players up to 24 hours before their opening game, as long as the issue is a new one rather than an existing problem they were carrying when they first joined up at the beginning of June.
