England national team boss Gareth Southgate believes Manchester City forward Raheem Sterling has the qualities to captain England in the future.
"We've had three or four players captaining the team, and Raheem is developing lots of the qualities those guys have," Southgate told reporters ahead of Monday's meeting with Montenegro.
"He has those qualities. It's difficult to talk about a potential captain when the captain [Kane] is in the hotel waiting to go out for dinner, but in terms of his personal qualities, he's shown some outstanding personal qualities."
The Three Lions captain is Hary Kane.
