Arsenal star back in team training with national side following injury concern | OneFootball

Ezri Konsa has handed England a fitness boost after returning to team training following his absence from the win over Czechia.

The defender missed the 2-0 victory after being troubled by a minor issue in the build-up to the game.

Konsa had been working on an individual programme alongside Nico O’Reilly, with the Manchester City defender having since returned to his club.

But the Gunners defender was back involved with the main group in training ahead of England’s clash with Croatia.

His return will be welcome news for Tuchel as he assesses his options following the Czechia win.

“It seems that Ezri Konsa is back,” the England boss said. “He did the full training session today and this gives us of course a lot of hope for tomorrow because he’s a key player for us.”

It has also eased fears for his club, who have already been handed injury worries through Kai Havertz and now Christos Tzolis during this international break.
