Ray Lewington will join Roy Hodgson as part of the England coaching staff for this summer's European Championships.

Hodgson was confirmed as the new Three Lions boss earlier this week and has now been joined by the Fulham coach, with whom he worked during his tenure at Craven Cottage.

"I'm delighted that Fulham have agreed to Ray joining the England coaching staff for the summer," said Hodgson.

"I know Ray well and enjoyed working with him at Craven Cottage. He's a very good coach and the players will I'm sure enjoy working with him.

"We're currently finalising the rest of the coaching staff but it's great to have Ray confirmed. I'd like to thank Fulham for agreeing to this."

Lewington will leave Fulham at the end of the season to take up the role.
