Kyle Walker has admitted that he is "gutted" not to be going to the World Cup with England this summer.
The Tottenham Hotspur defender, who is struggling with a pelvic injury, said that he understands Roy Hodgson's decision to not take him to Brazil.
"Gutted to miss the World Cup because of my injury," said the right-back on Twitter. "I'm still a few weeks away from being fit so I understand why the gaffer has left me out.
"We're taking a strong group of players to Brazil. All the best boys, I'll be supporting you!"
Had the 23-year-old been fit, he may have been the starting right-back ahead of Liverpool's Glen Johnson.
