England have confirmed Nico O'Reilly has withdrawn from their squad due to injury.
The Manchester City defender started in last Saturday's Nations League defeat to Spain at Wembley Stadium, but he was then absent for their win over Czechia on Tuesday.
O'Reilly assisted Harry Kane in a thrilling game against the world champions, but then made a mistake in the lead-up to Alex Baena's goal to make it 2-2.
The 21-year-old will now miss the Three Lions' trip to Croatia and home fixture against Czechia, with Thomas Tuchel opting against calling up a replacement for the left-back.
"Nico O'Reilly has returned to Manchester City and will play no part in the forthcoming UEFA Nations League fixtures," a statement read.
"No further replacements are planned as the Three Lions prepare to face Croatia in Rijeka on Saturday before returning to Wembley to take on Czechia on Tuesday."

England have won six of their last eight Nations League matches (L2), scoring 20 goals in the process.
That is more wins (W5 D6 L7) and goals (18) than they managed in their first 18 games in the competition.
The Three Lions have also won their last eight away matches in all competitions – a win against Croatia would see them equal their record of nine away wins in a row, set between December 1965 and October 1967 under Sir Alf Ramsey.
O'Reilly may now face a battle to be fit for Manchester City's next Premier League game, away to Liverpool on October 11.
