Manchester United and England full-back Ashley Young has talked up the current team spirit in the Three Lions camp ahead of the 2018 World Cup in Russia.

A standout season in defence at Old Trafford has seen the veteran claim a World Cup spot alongside fellow wing-back Danny Rose, and the 32-year-old has since moved to praise the mentality of his teammates ahead of England's looming campaign in Russia.

"Everybody wants the end result, and everyone wants to go and win," Young told PA. "In training we have a few five-a-side games, and everyone wants to win.

"But that's just the way it is and if you've got that in training, that hunger and that desire to win, and you can take that into a big tournament like the World Cup it can only set you in good stead.

"Everybody was a fan. Everyone has got the buzz of gong to a World Cup and the togetherness that is here in the squad is unbelievable."

England open their World Cup campaign when they face Tunisia in Group G at the Volgograd Arena on June 18.
