England's James and Rice to have fitness assessed

England will assess the fitness of Reece James and Declan Rice before their final World Cup group game against Panama. James, who has been struggling with a knee injury, was not present for training on Tuesday. Rice, a key midfielder, also missed training due to illness. Manager Gareth Southgate stated that both players will be evaluated by the medical team. The team's performance in the tournament has been strong so far, with wins against Iran and the United States. The match against Panama is scheduled for November 29th. England currently sits at the top of Group B. The team's medical staff will provide an update on their availability later this week.
