Newcastle Untied defender Jonathon Woodgate along with Arsenal centre-back Sol Campbell, will return from the Essex squad base. Newcastle United and former Leeds defender Jonathan Woodgate will not be making an appearance on Wednesday night as England take on Croatia in a friendly.

Sven Goran Eriksson has revealed how Woodgate along with Arsenal centre-back Sol Campbell, will return from the Essex squad base.

Woodgate suffered a knock during the Leeds United game at Elland Road on Sunday, and Campbell suffered a shoulder injury during Arsenal's opener against Everton.

Eriksson said: "Unfortunately Sol Campbell is out and Jonathan Woodgate is out.

"They are going home, they are not involved for the game."
