Beckham last wore the Three Lions some 331 days ago when England were knocked out in Germany by Portugal.

The first major decision of McClaren's reign was to drop the Real Madrid midfielder from his squad but England's fortunes have dipped without the 32-year-old.

Following confirmation of his recall at the weekend, Beckham travelled back to England from Spain and was last off the coach when the squad arrived at Arsenal's training facilities.

McClaren initially worked away from the squad as they warmed up in preparation for their training session.

Beckham lined-up in a midfield four along with Joe Cole, Steven Gerrard and Frank Lampard during a 10-a-side drill.

The squad were given running exercises while Beckham jogged and stretched with Chris Neville from England's back room staff.

Beckham then signed autographs and posed for pictures with fans before boarding the team bus.
