Arsenal winger Theo Walcott has been ruled out of England's friendly against Euro 2012 runners-up Italy on Wednesday because of a bruised thigh.
"Walcott ... was unable to train fully so has returned to his club as a precaution," the Football Association said on its website on Tuesday.
No replacement will be added to the England squad for the game in Berne.
