    England will present a weakened side to face Ghana on Tuesday after manager Fabio Capello released six players from the squad that played Wales in the Euro qualifier.

    Chelsea captain John Terry will not skipper the Three Lions after he was excused from the friendly to join his club.

    Having given the armband back to Terry after stressing the need for a permanent captain, Capello must find a new candidate for England’s first international with Ghana.

    Gareth Barry, who was dropped from the team to face Wales, will be the favourite after wearing the armband for a spell during last month’s friendly in Denmark.

    Frank Lampard and Ashley Cole are also heading back to Stamford Bridge, while Wayne Rooney will return to Manchester United and Michael Dawson goes back to Tottenham Hotspur.

    In addition, Aston Villa full-back Kyle Walker has been ruled out by a groin injury.

    This is a BIG blow to fans of the Black Stars who were expecting all the big names in the historic match between the World Cup quarter-finalists and their colonial masters.
