Overview

• Danns started and captained the U21s at Ipswich but was substituted after just over 30 minutes having pulled up following a free-kick.
• He will undergo tests to determine the severity of the problem and has been left out of the squad for the midweek Champions League game at Galatasaray.
• The withdrawal came two days after his first senior minutes since January in the League Cup win over Southampton, following a recent place on the bench against Atletico Madrid.
• His progress has been disrupted by a back issue that ended last season early and halted a planned loan move to Sunderland.
• Reporting notes strong competition for forward places and suggests the October international break could limit games missed if the layoff is brief.
