Everton former boss Roberto Martinez assured that the midfielder Aaron Lennon’s current form is good enough to make him an incredible asset for England squad at the last Euro 2016 this year.

The England international netted five impactful goals in his 25 Premier League appearance for Everton with 17 starts last season.

The 29-year old, capped 21 times, last played for his country in their friendly victory over Brazil in February 2013, but his ex-coach, Martinez still insists he remains a valuable option for the tournament in France which Portugal won with 1-0 after extra time in the final against the host, France.

“We all know the quality he brings – the pace, the one on one ability, the work-rate, the understanding. That experience he has is invaluable.
