Saka’s injury concerns are cause for another headache for manager Gareth Southgate who has seen Trent Alexander-Arnold withdraw from the squad with a thigh problem, ruling him out for up to six weeks.
There are also worries over the fitness of Harry Maguire and Jordan Henderson but both were selected for the tournament despite carrying knocks.
Saka scored the winner in the 1-0 victory over the Austrians in the match at the Riverside stadium.
