England release Dawson after injury

  • 14 years ago

Michael Dawson has returned to Tottenham after being ruled out of England's Euro 2012 qualifier in Switzerland on Tuesday.

The defender was carried off with a serious-looking knee injury during the second half of Friday's 4-0 win over Bulgaria.

Coach Fabio Capello had already expressed his concern for Dawson and after an initial examination on Saturday morning, the 26-year-old returned to White Hart Lane.
