new Southampton signing aspires to be England captain
new Southampton defender John Stones tells Football Focus he aspires to become captain of his club and one day to captain England.
The 21-year-old, who was given his first senior international start in a friendly against Norway in September 2014, followed by his competitive debut five days later in a Euro 2016 qualifier against Switzerland, admits he "never expected" to achieve what he has at such a young age.
Stones describes wearing the England armband as a "massive honour" and says he hopes to be viewed as a "leader on the pitch" for club and country in the future.
