England want Peru, Ecuador, Honduras friendlies

The England national team are seeking international friendlies against a trio of Latin American nations prior to the World Cup.

It is believed that Three Lions boss Roy Hodgson is keen to become familiar with that region's style of play as they prepare to tackle Uruguay and Costa Rica, as well as Italy, at Brazil this summer.

The FA are in talks with the federations of Peru, Ecuador and Honduras regarding fixtures later in the year. Early reports suggest the Peru match could be at Wembley while the other would be at England's pre-tournament base in Miami, Florida.
