Reece James Injury Sidelines Him for the Next Two World Cup Matches
The England national team suffered a major blow during the 2026 World Cup as right-back Reece James was confirmed to miss the next two matches due to a hamstring injury.
According to reports, James sustained an injury during England's match against Ghana. He then underwent an individual rehabilitation program away from group training, leading the medical team to decide to exclude him from the match against Panama, as well as the following match if the "Three Lions" advance to the round of 32. They are awaiting test results to determine the exact duration of his absence.
The injury is a concern for coach Thomas Tuchel, who relied on James as his first choice for the right-back position, especially since the England team had previously lost Tino Livramento before the start of the tournament due to injury, placing the coaching staff in a challenge to find a suitable replacement in the backline.
The English team hopes to have James back during the advanced stages of the tournament if his recovery process goes according to the scheduled medical program.
