Fabio Capello has revealed that he will not install a full-time England captain until the World Cup qualifiers start in September.

With speculation continuing to suggest that John Terry's reign as skipper may be over it remains to be seen who the new coach will choose to give the armband to.

With Terry currently injured and as a result set to be unavailable for Capello's first game in charge against Switzerland on Wednesday, Steven Gerrard, Michael Owen and Rio Ferdinand appear to be the leading candidates to take over the role.

Capello though has made it clear that whoever he chooses for the friendly against the Swiss a definitive decision on the situation will not be made until competitive action gets underway later in the year.
