Tottenham fullback Kyle Walker has revealed England coaches have been in touch.
Walker, who has been out for eight months due to injury, admits Southampton fullback Nathaniel Clyne has jumped to the front of the England queue.
"The England medical staff have been in touch, checking how I am, so it is fantastic to know I am still in their thoughts," Walker told the London Evening Standard. "Glen Johnson has not been in the squad recently but Clyne has come in and done fantastically well.
"So it's another duel for me, and I have to maintain tunnel vision. I have to do the things that got me into the England squad in the first place, and hopefully I can make that right-back spot my own.
"It will be hard, because Clyne is playing very well and coming up with goals, which is always a bonus. But I believe in myself and my own ability and, fingers crossed, I can go and win the spot back."
