Jordan Pickford, Ezri Konsa, Elliot Anderson and Jordan Henderson were seen disembarking. Some of the squad are understood to have stayed in Miami for holidays or to see family.

Fans gathered to cheer the players as they left the terminal. The airport is about 30 miles south of St George’s Park near Burton-on-Trent, the national team’s base.

England beat France 6-4 on Saturday to finish third, securing the men’s team’s best World Cup finish since winning in 1966.
