England interim coach Gareth Southgate has revealed captain Wayne Rooney is an injury doubt for Tuesday's friendly against Spain and confirmed Jordan Henderson will skipper the side.
Rooney and Ryan Bertrand both missed Three Lions training on Monday morning with "minor issues'' and Southgate said they will be assessed to see if they will be available for selection.
Southgate conceded the injuries make both players a doubt, but said he would not have named Manchester United forward Rooney in his starting lineup regardless.

He told a news conference: "Both are being assessed, they had minor issues this morning, so we'll have a look at them as the day goes on.
"They weren't ready to train today so they must be a doubt, but we'll have to look later.
"I wouldn't start Wayne in this game anyway, so we'll decide which route to go.''
Southgate did not reveal who will take Rooney's spot in England's XI, but confirmed Henderson -- who has stood in as skipper before -- would wear the captain's armband.
