England doubt for Southampton's Shaw

England manager Roy Hodgson has suggested that Luke Shaw may miss their upcoming friendly with Peru.

The Three Lions take on the South Americans in a pre-World Cup fixture at Wembley on Friday but are likely to be without the talented Southampton left-back who has fallen ill.

"We have no injury concerns but Luke Shaw has had a slight cold," said Hodgson.

"He travelled down on Saturday but he didn't train today and we're being very cautious. We can't say whether he will recover or not but it's a very minor issue and will quickly go over.

"We won't know until tomorrow morning whether he can take part against Peru."
