The England players were re-united at St. George's Park on Monday as they start preparations for Euro Qualifiers against Bulgaria and Kosovo

The England men's senior squad were back together at St. George's Park on Monday, as they reported for international duty for the first time this season.

Gareth Southgate's group, who face Bulgaria and Kosovo in Euro Qualifiers this month, arrived in Burton following weekend games with their respective clubs.

And there were some old faces mixed with new as the players arrived, with Aston Villa's Tyrone Mings joining up with the group for the first time following last week's call-up.

There were also returns for Kieran Trippier, who was back for the first time since last October following his early-season form with new club Atletico Madrid, Burnley's Nick Pope and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain who missed last season due to injury.

With less than a week to go until their first game with Bulgaria at Wembley on Saturday, it was straight into work too with a training session on Monday afternoon after a first group meeting for the whole squad. See some of our photos from their arrivals below.

It's a busy week at St. George's Park, with the national football centre also housing the men's U21, U20, U19 and U18 squads for the next few days as they all prepare for their opening fixtures of the season.
