British media: Gittens’ condition is not serious after the injury and will continue to stay in the England U21 team

6686 Sports November 16 News Chelsea teenager Gittens recently represented England U21 in the European Youth Championship qualifying match against Ireland U21. He left the field early due to injury, which once caused concern from the outside world. However, according to the latest news from The Sun: His injury is not serious and it has been confirmed that he can continue to stay in the England U21 team and will travel with the team for the key game against Slovakia in the away game next Tuesday.

The game was held at St. Andrews Stadium in Birmingham on November 14. England U21 finally won 2-0. But in the second half, Gittens felt unwell after a fierce challenge and was subsequently replaced by Fulham player Joshua King. He was visibly limping when he left the field and walked directly into the tunnel, leaving many fans worried about whether he might be injured.

So far this season, Gittens is one of only six players in the Blues to be on the roster for every game, and he is highly relied on by coach Maresca. His fitness is crucial to the team.

Fortunately, according to the latest news, Gittens has stated that there is no abnormality in his body and there is no ongoing pain in the injury. This news not only relieved England U21 coach Lee Carsley, but also reassured Maresca who was far away at Stamford Bridge. Chelsea is currently facing a tight frontline situation: another wide forward, Pedro Neto, has withdrawn from the Portuguese national team due to a groin injury; and core attacker Cole Palmer is also likely to be unable to make it to the away team's Premier League game against Burnley this weekend.
