Published March 26, 2023 9:15 AM

LONDON (AP) — England player Phil Foden has been ruled out of the European Championship qualifier against Ukraine after having his appendix removed hours before kickoff. The Football Association said the Manchester City forward underwent surgery on Sunday morning. No estimate has been given on how long Foden is expected to be out while he recovers but he is likely to miss City’s Premier League game against Liverpool next Saturday and could be a doubt for his team’s Champions League quarterfinal first-leg match against Bayern Munich on April 11.
