Gordon a doubt for England with a hip problem

Forward Anthony Gordon is a doubt for England after coming off in Newcastle's win at Nottingham Forest.

The 23-year-old was withdrawn with 10 minutes left at the City Ground with a hip issue, as the Magpies came from behind to earn a 3-1 victory.

Gordon, who has seven England caps, was included in Lee Carsley's squad for the Nations League games against Greece and Ireland this month but his injury will now be assessed.

Boss Eddie Howe said: "I’d say because he has come off, yes [a doubt for England].

"It looks like a similar problem to one he had a few weeks ago with his hip.
