Once on the ground, the team will make its way to the Swope Soccer Village in Kansas City, Missouri, where a community training session is scheduled for 5 p.m.

Late Friday, Kansas City police confirmed they were investigating the heist of gear and equipment from Team England in transit between Florida and Kansas City.

The Athletic reported early Saturday that the team had recovered some of the gear. The investigation into the theft continued Saturday afternoon.

England’s arrival on Saturday makes Kansas City one of the key hubs during the FIFA World Cup. They are the fourth country to arrive in the Kansas City region for base camp. Defending champion Argentina, Algeria and the Netherlands have all arrived in the area for their base camps.
