Ryan Bertrand only absentee from England training

Bertrand only absentee from training

Southampton defender Ryan Bertrand was England's only absentee from the squad that took to the field for a training session on Tuesday morning.

The Three Lions, who arrived in France on Monday, will begin their Euro 2016 campaign against Russia on Saturday night.

The squad are currently taking part in a training session near their base, and 22 members of their travelling 23-man squad were available.

Bertrand, who missed the 1-0 win over Portugal last time out with a knock, is expected to recover for the Russia clash on June 11, although the left-back is not currently regarded as a starter for his country.

Skipper Wayne Rooney led the warm-up shortly after 9.30am UK time.
