Norway's team doctor has put to rest any lingering concerns about the health of the squad, confirming that every player is fit and ready ahead of their FIFA World Cup 2026 quarter-final showdown with England in Miami.

Speaking to Nettavisen, the doctor offered a clean bill of health for the entire group, just days after manager Ståle Solbakken had raised the alarm over isolated cases of fever and coughing within the camp. Players including Jørgen Strand Larsen and Marcus Holmgren Pedersen were among those affected by the bug.

Medical staff were quick to downplay the severity of the illness, insisting the situation was firmly under control at all times.
