England camp worry for Scott Parker's fitness

Parker still a doubt for England

England's injury woes could further deepen as midfielder Scott Parker continues to struggle with his fitness levels.

The Tottenham Hotspur playmaker could add to an already-weak midfield due an Achilles injury, which marred the end of the 31-year-old's season at White Hart Lane.

While the former West Ham United captain is likely to feature for the Three Lions in the opening group game against France on June 11, reports have claimed that England are concerned that Parker's form won't be on par with that which helped lead Spurs into the top four of the Premier League table.

The national side lost Chelsea midfielder Frank Lampard to a thigh injury just days after Gareth Barry and John Ruddy were ruled out with problems.
