The England squad have been forced to spend an additional night in Italy after technical issues grounded their flight home.

In a move that could affect a number of Premier League clubs, the national team's return journey has been rescheduled for mid-morning on Wednesday.

"England team to stay extra night in Turin after technical issue to their plane means they will fly home tomorrow mid-morning," read a tweet from the official England account.

England's friendly with Italy in Turin finished 1-1, with Southampton's Graziano Pelle opening the scoring for the hosts and Andros Townsend of Tottenham Hotspur netting a late equaliser for the Three Lions.
