LONDON: West Ham United youngster Declan Rice was named in the England squad on Wednesday for this month's European Championship qualifiers just weeks after pledging his allegiance despite having already played for Ireland.

World governing body FIFA ratified Londoner Rice's switch last week as he had not played a competitive game for Ireland. "When you are asking a player to transfer allegiance they have to feel they have a future, but also there are no guarantees. But his form has been excellent."His character and leadership qualities means he fits in very well into the way that we work."
