Leicester City player’s honesty
Ever wondered why Leicester winger Marc Albrighton was never called-up to the senior England squad? Me too. And thankfully the Birmingham-born Fox has explained to talkSPORT, as per Leicestershire Live, exactly why he believes his chance never came for his country. That is apart from a 2009-2011 stint with the Three Lions’ Under-20 and U21 sides.

As Albrighton realistically tells it, he missed the opportunity to get the full international nod as a youngster, when most stars are picked out as special. Adding that he possibly “had a shout” when LCFC won the EPL title in 2016. However, he thinks he actually played better football during the 2016/17 campaign the following year. Finally, the wingman admits his lack of goalscoring statistics probably also had an impact because of an abundance of great wingers in his era.
