England defender Ezri Konsa trained separately ahead of Sunday’s Nations League clash with the Republic of Ireland at Wembley.
Konsa was withdrawn at half-time during Thursday’s 3-0 win over Greece with a hip injury and it was feared he would become the 10th withdrawal of the camp after he had a scan on Friday.
But the injury does not appear enough to rule him out of the Wembley clash, although he did not train with the group on Saturday lunchtime.

Interim boss Lee Carsley had 22 players out on the training pitch at Tottenham’s Hotspur Way complex for what is the final session of his time in charge.
Incoming boss Thomas Tuchel begins his role as Gareth Southgate’s permament successor in January.
The German’s first games in charge will be determined by the result on Sunday night.
Victory will ensure England are promoted back to League A of the Nations League, meaning March games will either be World Cup qualifiers or friendly fixtures.
If Greece, who play Finland, better England’s result then Tuchel’s first matches will be a two-legged Nations League play-off against a third-placed team from League A.
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
