What's new: The National League club said Defoe and assistant Paul Bracewell skipped a planning meeting and a training session.

The 23-year-old midfielder is under contract through 2031, and his fee briefly set an English transfer record before Morgan Rogers surpassed it.

What's new: The extension comes after Foden lost his starting spot and missed England's World Cup squad this summer.

Why it matters: The former England captain won two Ballon d'Or awards and became a defining figure at Liverpool, Hamburg and Newcastle.

What's next: England will mark the former captain and manager's life before its Sept. 26 Nations League game against Spain at Wembley.

What's next: Argentina will face Spain on Sunday after Enzo Fernandez leveled in the 86th minute and Lautaro Martinez scored in stoppage time.
