Injured right back Reece James is reportedly confident he will feature again for England before the tournament is over, giving the Three Lions a major fitness boost.
England have been handed an encouraging injury update on one of their key defenders. According to Sky Sports, Reece James is confident he will play again at the World Cup 2026, raising spirits in the Three Lions camp as the knockout rounds begin.
James has been sidelined but the report suggests he believes he can return before the tournament ends. It comes as England, who topped their group, face the prospect of an intense run of fixtures on the road to the final on July 19.
The news will be a significant boost to manager and squad alike. James, when fit, brings pace, athleticism and delivery down the right flank that few full backs in the world can match.
