Guehi and Wharton miss Palace party after hospital trips

Crystal Palace captain Marc Guehi and midfielder Adam Wharton both missed the team's FA Cup celebration party after being taken to hospital.

England centre-back Guehi was substituted in the second half of his side's 1-0 victory over Manchester City at Wembley after taking a blow to the eye as Palace secured their first major trophy.

The 24-year-old was still able to lead his team up the Wembley steps to lift the trophy after the final whistle and celebrate with his team-mates on the pitch.

However, Guehi was then taken to hospital in an ambulance after the game amid concerns he had suffered a fractured eye socket while the defender also complained of slight loss of sight.

It is understood tests have indicated Guehi has avoided a fracture but sustained severe bruising - though it remains to be seen if he can play in Palace's final two Premier League matches.

Guehi should be available for England's fixtures versus Andorra and Senegal on 7 and 10 June.

He spent the night in hospital before being discharged at around midnight which meant he had to miss the team's celebration party at Boxpark, just a stone's throw from Wembley Stadium.

Guehi's England team-mate Wharton also missed the team's post-match party.

He was sent to hospital for concussion checks after he was hit on the back of the head by a fierce shot from Kevin de Bruyne.

And the midfielder posted a photo of himself in a hospital robe on his Instagram account late on Saturday night.
