Darren Bent has been called into the England squad for Wednesday’s 2010 World Cup qualifier with Ukraine at Wembley.

England coach Fabio Capello has summoned for the Tottenham striker after Emile Heskey, Carlton Cole and Peter Crouch all picked up injuries in the 4-0 friendly win over Slovakia.

Bent appeared as a substitute in the friendly win over Germany last November and is likely to be on the bench for the visit of Ukraine.

Capello added: “Carlton Cole will not be able to play on Wednesday. Crouch will be OK I think. And Heskey will have a scan tomorrow.”
