Declan Rice participated in England's training session on Friday, a day after missing practice due to a calf knock. The midfielder is expected to be available for England's final group game against Panama.
However, defender Reece James was absent from the team's pitch session as he continues to manage a hamstring problem. James sustained the injury during England's draw with Ghana and was seen undergoing an individual program indoors. His availability for the upcoming match remains uncertain.
Thomas Tuchel, England's head coach, has Jarell Quansah, Djed Spence, and Ezri Konsa as alternative options at right-back. The team is preparing to travel to New York for their match against Panama.
Rice had been wearing strapping on his left calf following the Ghana match, and his absence from Thursday's training was attributed to the knock requiring rest. Despite his return to training, there is a question of whether Tuchel will risk starting Rice, who is one booking away from suspension in the round of 32.
Elliot Anderson, another midfielder, also missed training on Thursday but has since recovered sufficiently to rejoin the squad. England can secure first place in Group L with a victory over Panama, which would also influence their path through the knockout stages of the tournament.
