Mason Mount and Ben Chilwell re-joined their England team-mates at training on Wednesday morning following their period in quarantine.
The Chelsea stars were forced into isolation after being deemed to have had close contact with their club team-mate Billy Gilmour following England’s group-stage draw with Scotland on June 18. The Scottish player subsequently tested positive for coronavirus.
The duo’s time in quarantine ended on Monday night, less than 24 hours before the Three Lions last-16 showdown with Germany.
