Brighton captain Dunk hails Chelsea defender Colwill

Brighton captain Lewis Dunk has sung the praises of Chelsea defender Levi Colweill while with England.

The pair featured in the friendly win against Australia, having played together last season with Colwill on-loan.

Dunk said: “He's a top person, and I've seen him grow up last year. I tried to help him as much as I can, and he's grown massively.

“Coming to the [England] camps now, he's like a different person. He's taken on the responsibility at Chelsea, and he's put on a great performance. I'm sure that won't be his last England appearance. Left-back, centre-back: he's got it covered.

"He's very versatile."
