Ashley Young still waiting for Roy Hodgson call

Young still waiting for Roy Hodgson call

In-form Manchester United winger Ashley Young has revealed that he has not yet heard from England boss Roy Hodgson over an international recall.

The 29-year-old has looked back at his best under manager Louis van Gaal this season, with the Dutchman keen to reward him with a contract extension.

His resurgent form has led to suggestions that a Three Lions recall is on the cards, though Hodgson omitted him from recent clashes with Lithuania and Italy.

"There was no conversation," he told BT Sport. "Obviously I will always want to represent my country.

"I was a little bit disappointed not to be in the squad, but I have just got to make sure I am playing well here at United and hopefully I will get the call at some time soon."

Young's last England cap came in a World Cup qualifier against Ukraine back in 2013.
