Norwich City: Fans in disbelief after Todd Cantwell withdraws from England under-21 squad
Norwich City fans have been left in disbelief after Todd Cantwell withdrew from the England under-21 squad with a hamstring injury.
Are Norwich City heading back to the Championship?
Yes
No
Prior to the game against Aston Villa, the Canaries had 10 first-team players out of action, including the first and second choice ‘keepers (via BBC).
The 21-year-old isn’t the only player to have pulled out of a squad for a national team, with Kenny McLean and Jamal Lewis also doing so this week.
Cantwell has been in superb form for the Norfolk side this season, scoring two goals and assisting a further two in eight Premier League games (via Transfermarkt). The youngster scored in the 3-2 win over Manchester City earlier in the campaign.
After the game against the Villans, manager Daniel Farke bemoaned the injury problems, claiming it affected the result (via Birmingham Mail).
Fans were in shock over the news as they took to Twitter to react. Here is a selection of tweets from the Carrow Road faithful:
NOOOOOOOOO
