England must take Man Utd striker Welbeck to Euros, says Fergie

Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson feels England must take Danny Welbeck to the European Championships.

Ferguson believes the striker's form during 2011/12 has made him a certainty to represent England at the European Championships this summer.

“We did the right thing sending Danny to Sunderland last year,” the manager told manutd.com. “He did very well there and we expected him to do well this year.

"I think he will be [in the England squad for Euro2012]. He's developing into a very strong athlete. He's very athletic and when he gets moving he's really quick.

“He was always a decent goalscorer but when he plays regularly for us he has been getting a goal a game. There is a goal there from him and that's important.”
