Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain trains with England

England midfielder Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain returns to training with the side after injuring his knee.

Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain has returned to training with England for the first time since injuring his knee.

The Arsenal midfielder was forced off early during England's 2-2 draw with Ecuador after sustaining a strain to his medial ligament.

The 20-year-old was told that he would need 10 days to recover from the injury, making him a doubt for the side's opening match of the tournament against Italy, but was able to complete sprint training while wearing a knee brace today.

Manager Roy Hodgson has said that he hopes Oxlade-Chamberlain will be fit for the tournament.
