Mason Mount is a doubt for England’s World Cup qualifier against Poland after sitting out training on Tuesday.
Poland’s Grzegorz Krychowiak, who tested positive for Covid-19 along with Kamil Piatkowski, is allowed to feature after a second test came back negative.
Robert Lewandowski is injured, while Mateusz Klich and Lukasz Skorupski previously tested positive for Covid.
Speaking about the availability of Krychowiak, Poland head coach Paulo Sousa said: “It’s a huge boost, with his quality and experience.”
