Petition created to ban Tom Cleverley from England's World Cup squad

A petition to have Manchester United midfielder Tom Cleverley banished from the England World Cup squad receives more than 4,000 signatures.

A petition has been created to ban Manchester United midfielder Tom Cleverley from being included in England's World Cup squad in Brazil this summer.

The online document, which was set up by Glenn McConnell of Blackpool, states that the reputation of the Three Lions squad could be tarnished by the inclusion of the 24-year-old player.

The message on the petition reads: "We believe for the reputation of this proud footballing nation that he should be prevented from participating in this summer's international showcase.

"Whilst England are considered to disappoint at major tournaments, further embarrassment could be avoided by not having his inept performances undermine the rest of the team's efforts."

The petition has attracted more than 4,000 signatures, with 5,000 placed as the required target.
