Gareth Southgate has received encouraging news regarding Kyle Walker’s recovery from surgery as Joe Gomez emerges as an option for the England boss’ World Cup squad.
Walker is almost two weeks into his recovery from groin surgery and is in a race against time to be fit for the tournament that starts in little over four weeks time.
The Manchester City star is vital to Southgate’s plans and is one of the team’s guaranteed starters at full fitness.
