Gareth Southgate will not put pressure on Raheem Sterling to rejoin the England squad after he flew home due to a burglary at his Surrey home.
Sterling is prioritising his family’s safety before contemplating heading back to Doha and will deal with the police investigation over the next 48 hours.
England staff are in touch with Sterling but Chelsea are taking a lead role while he is in England.
Shortly before Sunday’s match, representatives for the Chelsea forward said armed intruders were involved and the player’s family were at home at the time.
