While the news regarding James was cautious, Tuchel was able to welcome Jarell Quansah back into the fold. Quansah missed the narrow 2-1 victory over DR Congo after picking up an ankle injury in the earlier win against Panama. His return to full training provides a much-needed boost to an England defence that has been forced into several reshuffles during the tournament so far. "You saw that Jarell trained, Jarell trained fully, is fully available. Reece can maybe make it onto the bench, he needs a last assessment from the doctors and medical opinion if this makes sense," the German coach explained.
