ARSENAL'S flying winger Theo Walcott could be set for a return to the full England squad.
The former Southampton man was surprisingly left out of Stuart Pearce U-21 squad yesterday.
This has led to media speculation that Fabio Capello could be set to hand Walcott a return to the full International set-up.
The highly rated 19-year-old was a shock inclusion in Sven-Göran Eriksson's England squad for the 2006 FIFA World Cup, and was at the centre of much publicity after failing to make a single appearance.
Since then Walcott has had to be content with continuing his international career with the U21's, although it now appears that he could be named in Capello's provisional 30-man squad on Thursday to face France next week.
And U21 manager and Capello's assistant Pearce has done little to quash the speculation.
He said: "You never know, there might be one or two names in Fabio's squad that make you sit up and listen."
