Gary Hooper retains England hope

By , Rugby Editor
Norwich City striker Gary Hooper reveals that he still hopes to be part of the England squad for next year's World Cup in Brazil.

Norwich City striker Gary Hooper has revealed that he still hopes to break into the England squad for next year's World Cup.

The 25-year-old admitted back in July that he joined the Premier League club from Celtic in order to boost his international chances.

Following Norwich's 2-0 win over West Bromwich Albion at the weekend, Hooper told BBC Sport: "Everyone wants to play for their country. I've just got to keep doing it on the pitch and keep scoring goals.

"Everyone's got to create chances for me. It's a team game and I've got to take my chances."

Hooper, who has scored five goals in 13 games this season, has never been capped at any level by his country.
