World Cup 2010: England's Fabio Capello to give Adam Johnson opportunity to impress

The 22 year-old winger has been hugely impressive since joining City from Middlesbrough at the end of the January transfer window, starring in their recent victories over Burnley and Birmingham. Capello will be without David Beckham at the World Cup in South Africa, while Aaron Lennon is battling to overcome a groin problem, and the Italian looks set to hand Johnson his first cap in England's friendly against Mexico next month. Capello said: "Adam Johnson (has caught my eye this season). He's come up from the Championship at Middlesbrough, where he played in a different position, and he's done well with Manchester City. "Now it's important he gets some international experience."
