Premier League bosses fear risk of injury to overplayed young stars

Premier League bosses are worried that their stars are being driven to let the breaking point break when England chooses their strongest possible team for this summer's European Under-21 championships.

Lee Carsley's team travel to Slovakia with the aim of retaining the title they won two years ago and Carsley is expected to choose an extremely strong team, with players such as Adam Wharton, Morgan Rogers, Levi Colwill, Myles Lewis-Skelly and Tino Livramento under the ELGIBANT Op Senior are still senior to the Senior Elegibel on Senior Senior Tournament.

Nevertheless, Mail Sport understands that there is unrest among Premier League clubs that fear that their young stars will need a good break this summer, and that the risk of injury will grow if they have none.

Wharton, 21, has struggled this period with injuries and was selected for both the European Championships of last summer and the tournament below 21 in 2023, which means that he has not had a clear break between seasons since 2022.

Rogers has since played 51 times for Aston Villa in the Premier League, FA Cup and Champions League, while Lewis-Skelly has become an important man for Arsenal, just like Livramento and Colwill for Newcastle and Chelsea respectively.

All those players can also be part of Thomas Tuchel's plans for the senior side, although their summer schedule is relatively light.

The world cup qualification of England in Andorra on 7 June is followed by a friendly against Senegal on the city on June 10th-two days before the young people under the age of 21 open their campaign against the Czech Republic.

Club versus Country Duels about participation in Junior tournaments are rather rage. Jack Wilshere was eventually persuaded to withdraw from the team below 21 in 2011, while Harry Kane played in the Under-21 tournament four years later.

The then boss Mauricio Pochettino blamed the slow start of Kane to the next campaign in his busy summer schedule.
