Tottenham Hotspur's Kyle Walker targets England recall following injury return

Tottenham Hotspur's Kyle Walker insists that he will try to earn back his place in the England team following his return to injury.

Tottenham Hotspur right-back Kyle Walker has expressed a desire to fight his way back into the England squad after returning from a long-term injury.

The 24-year-old missed the World Cup last summer as a result of a pelvic injury, which kept him out of action for eight months.

Since returning to first-team football at White Hart Lane, Walker is hoping to challenge Nathaniel Clyne and Glen Johnson for a place in the Three Lions setup.

Walker told the London Evening Standard: "The England medical staff have been in touch, checking how I am, so it is fantastic to know I am still in their thoughts. Glen Johnson has not been in the squad recently but Clyne has come in and done fantastically well.

"So it's another duel for me, and I have to maintain tunnel vision. I have to do the things that got me into the England squad in the first place, and hopefully I can make that right-back spot my own."

Walker currently has 10 England caps to his name.
