Gareth Southgate's England squad have stepped up their preparations for Euro 2024 as they get ready for Monday's friendly against Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Southgate's players including Harry Kane, Jack Grealish and Declan Rice were in good spirits as they trained at Rockliffe Park prior to Monday's game, which will take place at St James' Park.
The session included 26 members of England's 33-man provisional Euro 2024 squad, with Jude Bellingham given time off after winning the Champions League with Real Madrid.
Kobbie Mainoo, Kyle Walker and Phil Foden are also yet to link up with the squad following their involvement in the FA Cup final.
Harry Maguire, Luke Shaw and Anthony Gordon are all continuing to work on individual programmes.

With some key players missing, the game against Bosnia and Herzegovina could be an opportunity for some individuals to stake their claim for inclusion in the final squad.
There are five uncapped players in the England squad - James Trafford, Jarrad Branthwaite, Jarell Quansah, Curtis Jones and Adam Wharton - so it is possible that there could be some debutants on Monday.
Having lost on penalties to Italy in the final of Euro 2020, Southgate will be determined for his side to go all the way on this occasion and win the tournament for the first time.
