The English Squad update: Quansah ruled out
The defender will sit out the English team's FIFA World Cup qualifying match against the Latvian side due to injury and the player – who did not take part in England's three-nil friendly win over Wales at Wembley – will return to his team the Bundesliga club.
He has been a key player in Leverkusen's backline this season but the national squad said no additional squad replacements were planned for the qualification match in the Latvian capital on Tuesday.
The English side could secure a spot for the upcoming World Cup with two games to spare if they defeat their opponents on Tuesday and outcomes elsewhere in Group K go their way.

Preamble
It’s make or break for the Irish team, though their opportunities of reaching North America may already be finished. A familiar figure in the Portuguese star awaits them, and the Portuguese squad are top of their group. At the venue, the Irish side face a huge task.
Our other main focus will be reigning European champions Spain, who have triumphed in every game so far in Group E, against the Georgian team, who have never earned a place for a major tournament and are aiming for the playoffs. Khvicha Kvaratskhelia has been a doubt and Liverpool fans will get a chance to see Giorgi Mamardashvili.
