Arsenal striker Danny Welbeck will miss this summer's Euro 2016 tournament due to injury.
The Arsenal striker sustained a knee injury during the first half of Sunday's 2-2 draw with Manchester City after stretching to challenge Bacary Sagna.
Welbeck knew immediately that the problem was serious having had previous experience of a separate knee injury which kept him out for 10 months.
Early prognosis suggests the 25-year-old will miss England's Euro 2016 campaign and could be out of action for up to five months.
Former Manchester United forward Welbeck has scored five goals and notched two assists since his much-anticipated comeback in February, becoming a key player for Arsene Wenger's side in the final few months of the season.
Confirmation of the full diagnosis is expected to come on Wednesday but early indications show that Welbeck, along with the injured Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, will not be involved in the European Championship this summer.
