Ex-Arsenal star makes bold Declan Rice England captain claim after Tottenham's Harry Kane miss

Former England and Arsenal defender Tony Adams believes Harry Kane should be stripped of the captain's armband and be replaced by West Ham United skipper Declan Rice.

Tottenham striker Kane has led the Three Lions through Gareth Southgate's tenure as boss, leading the international side to the 2018 World Cup semi-finals and the Euro 2020 finals where they lost to Italy on penalties.
