Rico Henry nearing Brentford comeback after return from injury in behind-closed-doors game Rico Henry is nearing a return from injury after featuring in an in-house match at Brentford's training ground on Saturday.
Speaking in the summer, Henry said the chance to play for England at the World Cup in 2026 is a factor motivating him to come back stronger than ever.
New England boss Thomas Tuchel is short of left-back options and Henry was impressing for Brentford before his latest knee injury.
“One thing that really motivated me was looking forward to the World Cup in 2026 - there’s always a chance,” said Henry.
Thomas Frank’s first-team host Plymouth Argyle in the FA Cup on Saturday, and it remains to be seen whether Henry will be considered for the squad for that third-round tie.
