Norwich City's international players have made their return home after their respective World Cup campaigns came to an end, as the semi-finals of the competition approach.

Both Mohammed Touré and Ali Ahmed's nations made it to the round of 16 before their exit last week, as Australia were beaten on penalties by Egypt and Canada suffered a 3-0 defeat to Morocco.

Tunisia, Scotland and Panama could only go as far as the group stage, meaning Anis Ben Slimane, Kenny McLean and José Córdoba's tournament was cut short at the end of June.

The returning group will take a short break before joining up with the remainder of the squad back in Norfolk for further pre-season preparations.
