Brazil and Chelsea playmaker Oscar has been ruled out of this summer's Copa America through injury.

The 23-year-old missed Sunday's Premier League match with Crystal Palace with an unspecified injury, which is understood to not be related to the head knock sustained against Arsenal the previous week.

Oscar wrote on Twitter: "I'm really sad that I can't represent my country in the Copa America because of injury. Thanks to everybody for the well wishes!!"
