John Stones was unable to train with England's World Cup squad in Portugal today after suffering a slight knee injury.

The 19 year-old is on standby for Roy Hodgson's World Cup squad and travelled with the rest of England's players to their training camp this week as they prepare for the upcoming campaign in Brazil.

Stones' injury is not thought to be serious and he sat out of training today as a precaution.

Phil Jones, meanwhile, looks to be on course to be fir fit for the Finals and that would mean Stones won't be needed by Hodgson.

The England manager said of the Manchester United defender, "Phil Jones is actually making incredible progress. We are being cautious, it's looking good."
