Beckham will skipper the national team for the first time since relinquishing the armband after the 2006 World Cup quarter-final exit to Portugal. Fabio Capello has name David Beckham as England captain for Sunday’s friendly with Trinidad & Tobago. Sunday will mark his 102nd appearance for the national team. But according to Skysport, there have been suggestions that the midfielder has been handed the captaincy for the game to boost England’s bid to host the 2018 World Cup.
England coach Fabio Capello has already used Steven Gerrard, Rio Ferdinand and John Terry as captains since he took charge the Three Lions. The captaincy of England will be rotated among the most influential player in the team. The coach doesn’t intend to name a permanent captain until England’s 2010 World Cup qualifiers in September against Andorra and Croatia, and Beckham remains one of the candidates.
