Albion international pair Isaac Price and Callum Styles checked into pre-season training on Thursday.

The duo were permitted an extra day's leave before returning to join new boss Ryan Mason and their team-mates due to action for their respective nations at the beginning of June.

Midfielder Price featured twice, and netted the match-winner against Iceland, in friendlies for Northern Ireland. Versatile full-back Styles came on for Hungary in a win in Azerbaijan.

The rest of Albion's squad checked in for pre-season at the club's training HQ in Walsall on Wednesday, where there were introductions, testing and light training with head coach Mason and his backroom team.

Still waiting to check into Albion training, though, is popular defender Torbjorn Heggem.

The double player of the season award winner has forced his way into starting contention for Norway and played twice in World Cup qualifying wins over Italy and Estonia.

Central defender Heggem has been granted an extra few days' leave before he reports for duty for training on Monday.

That is due to the fact last summer's signing from IF Brommapojkarna in Sweden was purchased by Albion mid-season in Scandinavia, and as a result has been in action for a significant period without an extended break.

The 26-year-old will instead check in with colleagues on Monday.

The other member of the first-team squad still to return is winger Tom Fellows, whose under-21 European Championship with England has advanced to Saturday night's final against Germany.

Fellows will hope to bring a winners' medal back to these shores after Saturday's showpiece and will be afforded extra time off as a result.
