Good news, England fans. All 26 players trained today, including Kyle Walker, Kalvin Phillips and James Maddison.
All 26 players in Gareth Southgate’s England squad have trained in Qatar for the first time since landing in Doha.
There have been some concerns over the sharpness of Kalvin Phillips ahead of the tournament, with the Manchester City midfielder returning from a lengthy shoulder injury last week.The £45million summer signing had no choice but to have surgery, City manager Pep Guardiola said at the time. He will be happy to have the option to do so, however, with Phillips taking part in training on Wednesday.Walker went under the knife after suffering an injury against Manchester United on October 2.He was, however, deemed fit enough to travel to Qatar, despite Southgate’s decision not to take Chelsea’s Reece James.
Walker taking part in training is a huge boost and it looks like Southgate’s decision to bring him to Qatar is fully justified. Many were expecting Southgate to snub Maddison for the World Cup, but were pleased to see him make the cut.Maddison received a scare over the weekend when he limped off against West Ham United in the Premier League.
