Liverpool winger Jordon Ibe has withdrawn from the England Under-20 squad for the Toulon Tournament, owing to a knee injury.

Ibe spent six months on loan to Championship outfit Derby County before he returned to Anfield in January this year.




Since his return to Merseyside, the youngster has made 12 Premier League appearances and has been impressive in his displays.

As a result, he was named in the England Under-20 squad for the summer tournament to be held in the French city of Toulon, but his knee injury has forced him to withdraw from the squad.
 


Derby County striker Kwane Thomas will be the replacement for Ibe.

Following his encouraging displays from this campaign, Ibe has been tied to a new long-term contract by Liverpool that will see him at the club until the summer of 2020.

Ibe will be keen to find regular playing time with the Reds next season.
