Southgate considers Watford captain Deeney

Watford captain Troy Deeney is under consideration for an England call.

Deeney is being considered for a shock England call-up by manager Gareth Southgate, says The Sun.

The Hornets striker has become well known for scoring crucial goals, most recently when he coolly slot home a last minute penalty to draw level with Wolves in the FA Cup semi-final, which they went on to win in extra time.

He also has nine Premier League goals this season in 29 appearances.

The 30-year-old is yet to play for his country at any level.
