Tuchel reveals positive injury update ahead of Norway showdown | OneFootball

Thomas Tuchel says Reece James will be back available for England’s quarter-final tie with Norway.

The defender has missed the last three games because of a hamstring injury but returned to team training ahead of Saturday’s clash.

Marc Guehi is also set to be available amid concerns over his fitness after the win over Mexico.

The only absentees for England will be Jordan Henderson, who is set to miss the remainder of the tournament with an arm injury, and Jarell Quansah who is suspended.

“It’s the best news. We had everyone available in training which ​we of course like,” the England boss said.

“We have the full choice except ⁠for our suspended player, so that’s the good news.”

Tuchel says his side’s win over Mexico in the round of 16 was a big step forward but insists there is much more to come from his players.

“I think we took a big step in our last match, but it was only a step,” he added.

“We’re still hungry, we still have dreams and we still have a big goal to play for. The next step is to win the quarter-final.

“We left this match behind. We take the positive things and the belief with us, but everything that matters is ahead of us.”
