Manchester United's Phil Jones has admitted that he would like to captain England one day.
The 19-year-old, who made his senior debut in last month's Euro 2012 qualifier against Montenegro, has been widely tipped to be a future skipper of the national team.
"It's nice to hear people talking about me being England captain one day," Jones told the club's official website. "But I need to keep my feet on the ground and firstly play well for Manchester United. If I do that, then I'll keep getting the chance to play for England.
"If I could captain England one day then I think that would be the pinnacle of my career."
Jones is expected to feature in United's Premier League fixture at Swansea City on Saturday.
