      England are set to have a fully fit squad for their last-16 match-up with Senegal.
      Southgate, however, may decide to hand Marcus Rashford a start following his brilliant performance in the win over Wales.
      Foden also impressed, but Bukayo Saka could come back into the side, as could Mason Mount, who dropped to the bench in favour of Jordan Henderson on Tuesday night.

      Kieran Tripper may also come back into the XI alongside Kyle Walker, but that would most likely see England’s system change from a 4-3-3 to one that favours five at the back.
      Senegal will also have a mostly fit squad, which includes Chelsea duo Koulibaly and goalkeeper Edouard Mendy.
      But superstar Sadio Mane will be OUT of the game, as he recovers from knee surgery.
