Reece James doubtful for England-Mexico World Cup tie, Jarrell Quansah fit

Reece James has missed England's last two World Cup fixtures after suffering a hamstring injury in the closing stages of the goalless draw with Ghana. The Chelsea right‑back was absent from the final training session in Mexico City ahead of the Monday tie with Mexico.

Jarrell Quansah, who can operate as a centre‑back or full‑back, has completed his rehabilitation and is back to full training, meaning he is fit to face Mexico. His return eases Thomas Tuchel's concerns over defensive options.
