Cole Palmer had a difficult evening during England Under-21s' clash with Serbia. The Chelsea forward suffered a thigh injury early in the game, and had to have his right leg bandaged during the first half. He was able to make it out for the second half but was forced to pull up just six minutes into the half as he felt more pain in his right thigh. He was able to walk off the pitch unaided, removing the bandage as he made his way towards the touchline.
These events leave Cole Palmer as a doubt for England Under-21s' European Championship qualifier against Ukraine on Monday. Palmer joined Chelsea in the summer transfer window in a £42.5 million deal from Manchester City. He has made six appearances for Mauricio Pochettino's side, scoring one goal and registering two assists.
England Under-21s recorded a memorable 9-1 win over Serbia on Thursday evening. Jaden Philogene, Harvey Elliot and Noni Madueke all scored twice, while Liam Delay and Jonathan Rowe also found the net. Luka Subotic put through his own net late in the game. The win keeps England top of Group F with three wins from three games.
