Middlesbrough strikers Afonso Alves and Mido
could face internal disciplinary action after they failed to show
up for the first day of pre-season training.
Press reports claimed Tuncay had failed to return without notice
but boss Gareth Southgate had authorised his absence following
Turkey commitments.
Andrew Taylor and Adam Johnson were also rested after their
England duties.
"Some of our players had permission to return to training at a
later date and some did not," said a club spokesman.

Egyptian international Mido spent the second half of last season
on loan at Wigan, while Alves scored just four league goals as Boro
were relegated for the first time in 11 seasons.
