England stars headed to their World Cup base in Kansas last week, which came with its troubles.
Upon relocating from Florida to Kansas, the England team had equipment valued at approximately £13,550.
Two men were charged with receiving the stolen property, with each defendant facing a single count carrying a potential prison sentence of up to seven years.
The pair were responsible for transporting the national team's gear from their warm-weather training base in West Palm Beach to Kansas City, where a detective subsequently recovered the items.
Court documents revealed the specific items allegedly discovered included four pairs of boots priced at £250 each and five pairs of shoes priced at £170 each.
Signed national team shirts were also among the recovered goods, alongside a World Cup ball valued at £160 and goalkeeper gloves costing £120.
Two stuffed lions and a Lego set depicting a Nike Air shoe featured among the variety of possessions taken during what Kansas City mayor Quinton Lucas described as a "heist in transit of English national team equipment".
The FA confirmed the majority of the training gear had been retrieved before England's opening session at their base.
England's woes continued with news that Tino Livramento would miss the tournament with an injury.
The Newcastle defender has reportedly suffered a calf problem that will force him to leave Thomas Tuchel's squad and return home after scans reportedly revealed a low-grade tear.
Chelsea's Trevoh Chalobah will replace the full-back, with the Blues star a surprise selection given his natural position in central defence.
