As the team prepared for the friendly and Euro 2024, a quartet of players were not spotted with the rest of the group at St George’s Park.

Jordan Henderson, Cole Palmer, Bukayo Saka and Harry Kane all practised on their own.

Amid injury fears, it has been reported that the quartet are involved in “individualised programmes indoors”.

Luke Shaw has not been named in Gareth Southgate‘s squad for the meetings with Brazil and Belgium.

However, the Manchester United left-back was seen at the England camp undergoing rehabilitation following a muscle problem.

There are concerns he could miss the rest of the season and Euro 2024 due to his injury.

Late call-up Kobbie Mainoo was involved in a senior national team session for the first time today.

Southgate revealed last night that he made the cut for the squad despite initially not being chosen.

Goalkeepers – Jordan Pickford, Aaron Ramsdale, Sam Johnstone

Defenders – Kyle Walker, John Stones, Lewis Dunk, Jarrad Branthwaite, Joe Gomez, Ezri Konsa, Harry Maguire, Ben Chilwell

Midfielders – Declan Rice, Jordan Henderson, Conor Gallagher, Jude Bellingham, James Maddison, Kobbie Mainoo

Forwards – Harry Kane, Bukayo Saka, Phil Foden, Jarrod Bowen, Ollie Watkins, Cole Palmer, Marcus Rashford, Ivan Toney, Anthony Gordon

The manager was criticised by pundit Ian Wright for not selecting the teenage midfielder first time around.

Meanwhile, fellow debutants Jarrad Branthwaite and Anthony Gordon were seen in training.

The trio are all hoping to make their international debuts this week.
