West Brom keeper Foster determined to make England World Cup squad

West Bromwich Albion goalkeeper Ben Foster is desperate to be on the England plane to Brazil next summer.

Foster is recovering from a foot injury, but nine months after ending his self-imposed international exile, insists he is desperate to play in next year's tournament.

He told the Telegraph: "The chance of being in the England squad and going to a World Cup in Brazil next summer is really exciting.

"It's a huge carrot, I'm buzzing at the thought of it, but there's so much for me to do, just in terms of fitness, getting back in the side, playing well if I do.

"When the lads qualified last month, it was a great feeling, but I really can't let myself think about any of that at the moment. My foot needs to heal, I need to play, then we can think about England."
