Albion skipper Lewis Dunk and his England team-mates were back on the training pitch this morning ahead of their game against Denmark.
The session took place at their base in Weimarer Land Spa and Golf Resort in Blankenheim, East Germany.
Dunk was seen warming up with England captain Harry Kane using a resistance band.
All England players participated in the training session except for Luke Shaw.
Shaw had started training with the team again before the victory over Serbia, a match he was never expected to play in, with hopes that he would gain some valuable minutes against Denmark.
However, his availability is now in some doubt due to his absence from team training on Wednesday, although this is not believed to indicate a new injury setback.
Dunk and his England colleagues will travel 215 miles to the Deutsche Bank Park Stadium later today, with Gareth Southgate and Kyle Walker set to hold a pre-match press conference in Frankfurt this evening.
With Shaw still working his way back to full fitness, Newcastle United's Kieran Trippier is set to start again on the left-hand side, likely part of an unchanged England XI for the second consecutive game.
Reports suggested Southgate might replace Phil Foden with Anthony Gordon after Foden's ineffective performance against Serbia, but the England manager is expected to retain faith in the 24-year-old.
Suggestions that Cole Palmer could replace Trent Alexander-Arnold, pushing Jude Bellingham into a deeper midfield role, are also believed to be unfounded.
However, Southgate might consider changes against Slovenia on June 25 if England secure a knockout spot this week.
