Gareth Southgate Provides Injury Update on Eric Dier After Tottenham Star Hobbles Off in England Win

Eric Dier's international break has been cut short after he picked up an injury in the early stages of England's 5-0 win over the Czech Republic.

The 25-year-old was forced off inside the opening 20 minutes at Wembley, being replaced by Chelsea's Ross Barkley in the heart of midfield.

It's since been confirmed that Dier suffered a hip injury following his collision with Czech midfielder Tomáš Souu010dek, with Gareth Southgate confirming after the match that he would return to Tottenham for treatment.

"I think he will go back to his club," England manager Southgate told Sky Sports.
