Chelsea striker Nicolas Anelka has landed in London from South Africa, according to L' Equipe.
The 31-year-old striker was kicked out of France's World Cup squad following a verbal attack on coach Raymond Domenech during half-time of the defeat by Mexico.
He left South Africa on Sunday evening, landing at London's Heathrow Airport early on Monday.
Anelka will now go on holiday before joining up with the rest of Chelsea's squad for their pre-season program.
France are on the verge of leaving the tournament at the group stages as they currently find themselves three points behind Uruguay and Mexico.
Recent reports suggest that Anelka is considering retiring from international football after being sent home, even though coach Domenech will be replaced by Laurent Blanc after the World Cup.
