Having enjoyed a smooth, injury-free warm weather training camp in Florida, the Football Association had to deal with an unexpected headache in the Midwest on Friday night.

Equipment was discovered missing upon arriving at their Swope Soccer Village base, with Kansas City mayor Quinton Lucas saying “local, state and federal” officials were working on the “heist in transit of English national team equipment”.

Jackson County prosecutor Melesa Johnson has charged two men in connection with the incident, with Mustafa Salik and Erfan Kamal each facing a count of receiving stolen property carrying up to seven years in prison.

The pair drove England team equipment from their warm weather facility in West Palm Beach to Kansas City and a detective recovered an estimated 18,145.41 dollars (£13,530) worth of items.

Court documents show four pairs of £250 boots and five pairs of £170 shoes were allegedly found, along with some signed national team shirts, a £160 World Cup ball and a pair of £120 goalkeeper gloves.

Two stuffed lions and a Lego set of a Nike Air shoe were among the variety of other items.

The FA indicated to the Press Association earlier on Saturday that most of the training gear had been recovered ahead of the first session at Swope Soccer Village.

England back-up goalkeeper Dean Henderson said with a smile when asked if his boots and gloves made it to Kansas City: “Yeah, thankfully. I think they got stolen but we got them back so it’s all good.”
