Manchester City<\/a>\u2019s Micah Richards<\/a> will not participate in next month\u2019s European Under-21 Championship after injury forced manager Stuart Pearce<\/a> to withdraw the full-back from his 23-man squad.
<\/span><\/p>\n

Richards, who was part of City\u2019s FA Cup-winning side, will not take part in the competition in which England are grouped with Spain, Ukraine and the Czech Republic. He was expected to captain the side.<\/span><\/p>\n

The news follows the non-selection of key duo Andy Carroll and Jack Wilshere, with the latter being the subject of a club versus country row that had lasted several weeks.<\/span><\/p>\n

Richards has played 14 times at under-21 level and 12 times for the full national side.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
