Jarell Quansah will miss England's World Cup qualifying match against the Latvian side due to injury and the defender – who did not take part in England's three-nil friendly victory over Wales at Wembley Stadium – will return to his club Bayer Leverkusen.
He has been a regular in Leverkusen's backline this season but the national squad said no additional squad additions were scheduled for the qualifier in Riga on Tuesday.
The English side could earn a place for next year's World Cup with two matches to remaining if they defeat their opponents on this Tuesday and outcomes in other matches in Group K go their in their favor.
Overview
This is make or break for Ireland, though their chances of reaching the World Cup may already seem finished. A familiar figure in Cristiano Ronaldo awaits them, and the Portuguese squad are leading of their group. At the venue, Ireland confront a enormous challenge.
Another key match will be European champion the Spanish national team, who have won every game so far in Group E, against Georgia, who have never qualified for a finals and are hoping for the playoffs. Khvicha Kvaratskhelia has been a doubt and the Premier League club fans will get a opportunity to see the Georgian goalkeeper.
