Raheem Sterling could be handed the captain's armband when England take on Holland in their UEFA Nations League opener this summer.
Gareth Southgate's side face the Dutch on June 6 for a place in the Nations League final, with the winners taking on either Portugal or Switzerland.
And with Harry Kane and Jordan Henderson doubts for the clash against Holland due to their participation in the Champions League final and the former's ankle injury, Sterling may potentially lead the Three Lions out in June.
