ISTANBUL (AA) - Manchester United's Mason Greenwood has withdrawn from the provisional England EURO 2020 squad, it was announced on Tuesday.

He is out of the squad "in order to recover fully from an underlying injury that also kept him out of the Under-21 European Championship in March," the Red Devils said in a statement.

"But a further spell of tournament football would not be beneficial and Mason will remain at Manchester United to recuperate and prepare for pre-season training," it added.

The 19-year-old forward has made 105 appearances for the English club, registering 29 goals and 10 assists.

The month-long 2020 European Football Championship will be played in 11 cities across Europe from June 11.

England will take on Croatia, Czech Republic, and Scotland in Group D.
