Crystal Palace defender Marc Guehi has been named England U21 captain.

The 21-year-old has been handed the armband for the Young Lions' qualifying campaign for the 2023 European Championship.

“It's a privilege to be captain," Guehi said. “It is a proud moment for me and my family. I was a bit shocked at first – there's a lot of leaders and fantastic players in the group.

“It honestly could have been so many people. [The manager] sees maybe something from a different perspective or from the sidelines, but I am confident and I try to help people on or off the pitch.

“Those are some of the qualities I feel I have."
