Gareth Southgate has already decided upon his 26-man squad for the World Cup.
England boss Southgate has spoken to a number of the Three Lions injured players in recent days. It's believed Chelsea defender Reece James, who suffered a knee injury last month, will not be included in the squad for the tournament in Qatar.
However, Manchester City duo Kyle Walker and Kalvin Phillips are both expected to be included after recovering from groin and shoulder surgeries respectively. Phillips, who enjoyed an outstanding Euro 2020, is set to get minutes in City's EFL Cup tie against Chelsea at the Etihad on Wednesday evening. Come through that unscathed, and he'll be included.
