But the duo, who will line up against France in tomorrow's quarter-final, have now vowed to take him home regardless.

An FA source said: “We’ve been working with the Qatar Animal Welfare Society.

“They’ve treated him for a leg injury sustained during a fight with another cat.”

They added the mog, who strolled into the team’s base in Qatar, would live with either John, 28, or Kyle, 32.

Stones, 28, fell for the cat when he strolled into the team’s five-star training base on their first day.

He later posted a pic of himself giving a thumbs up as the cat relaxed under his chair with the message: “Dave’s joined us for dinner #mascot.”
