West Ham United’s senior international stars were reunited with their first-team squad-mates for pre-season training on Monday.
England pair Declan Rice and Jarrod Bowen, Czech Republic duo Tomáš Souček and Vladimír Coufal, France's Alphonse Areola, Croatia international Nikola Vlašić and England U21 full-back Ben Johnson were all back at Rush Green.
There, they were introduced to new boys Nayef Aguerd and Flynn Downes, as well as the players who spent last week training in France and facing Swiss side Servette in the Irons' first pre-season match last Friday evening.
With temperatures touching 30C (86F), conditions were testing as the players got down to work in two training sessions before and after lunch.
Club photographer Jimmy Griffiths was on hand to capture the happy faces and hard work as the Hammers stepped up preparations for the 2022/23 season.
