(Reuters) - Cole Palmer, Ollie Watkins and Phil Foden have been ruled out of England's upcoming Nations League fixtures, the Football Association said on Tuesday.

After assessment both Palmer and Watkins have returned to their clubs to continue their rehabilitation from ongoing issues, the FA added after the squad reported to St George's Park.

The 24-year-old Foden who was called up by interim England boss Lee Carsley did not report through illness and has been ruled out of the games.

England travel to Dublin to take on Ireland on Sept. 7 before hosting Finland at Wembley three days later.
