LONDON (AP): England coach Fabio Capello has called up Kyle Walker for Wednesday's friendly against Denmark after the Tottenham fullback impressed on loan at Aston Villa.
The 20-year-old Walker has played only three minutes as a substitute for Spurs this season but has excelled on loan at second-tier Queen's Park Rangers and now Villa.
The right back is the fifth Villa player in the squad, with Stewart Downing, Ashley Young, Gabriel Agbonlahor and Darren Bent also picked. Bent is likely to start up front alongside Wayne Rooney in Copenhagen.
Rio Ferdinand is unavailable after he was hurt warming up for Manchester United on Saturday, so Steven Gerrard will be captain.
