Cottee Excited By Leicester's English Prospects

Former Leicester City striker and pundit Tony Cottee catches up with LCFC TV to discuss the Club's growing count of England stars.

Meanwhile, centre-back Maguire, one of England’s stars at the 2018 FIFA World Cup last summer, has been capped 18 times for the Three Lions, scoring once in the process.

A final 23-man squad for the tournament will be confirmed before they head to Portugal to begin their bid to win the first-ever Nations League trophy early in June.

Elsewhere, Harvey Barnes, Hamza Choudhury, Demarai Gray and James Maddison have been named in the England Under-21s squad for the European U21 Championship.
