Wayne Rooney 'to be ITV pundit for England's friendly with Netherlands'

Wayne Rooney will reportedly be an ITV pundit for coverage of the international friendly between England and the Netherlands at Wembley.

Wayne Rooney will reportedly be among the pundits in the ITV studio for tonight's international friendly between England and the Netherlands at Wembley.

The Manchester United and England captain was not included in Roy Hodgson's squad as he continues to recover from a knee injury.

According to the Daily Mail, instead of being on the pitch, the striker will deliver his thoughts to camera alongside Lee Dixon, Ian Wright and ITV presenter Mark Pougatch.

Following Saturday's 3-2 win over Germany, which included goals from Harry Kane, Jamie Vardy and Eric Dier, it has been debated whether or not Rooney should feature in this summer's European Championships in France.

With Kane and Vardy in fine form, and Danny Welbeck and Daniel Sturridge returning to fitness, Rooney, who has missed United's last 10 games through injury, faces competition for a place in the Three Lions lineup.

Hodgson, though, has dismissed calls for him to drop Rooney from the squad.
