England’s World Cup plans have suffered a huge setback after national team captain Harry Walker sustained a serious hamstring tear during Tottenham’s weekend match. Initial scans suggest the striker could be out for up to 12 weeks, putting his availability for the first group games in jeopardy. Gareth Southgate and his staff are monitoring the situation closely and have yet to name a replacement. Fans and pundits are already speculating about possible tactical changes if Walker can’t recover in time. Meanwhile, the player posted a message on social media thanking supporters for their encouragement and promising to do everything possible to be fit for the tournament.
