Watford captain Troy Deeney should be handed a call-up to the England squad, his manager Walter Mazzarri has claimed.
With Tottenham striker Harry Kane facing a lengthy spell on the sidelines after he sustained an ankle injury earlier this month, England manager Sam Allardyce will be on the lookout for a replacement ahead of the World Cup qualification double-header against Malta and Slovenia in October.
Deeney, who courted the interest of Premier League champions Leicester in the summer before agreeing a new five-year deal at Watford, has scored in his side's successive victories against West Ham and Manchester United.
