Manchester United midfielder Tom Cleverley has stated that he wants to break his England injury jinx and be included in the national squad for Euro 2012.

The Old Trafford talent has been in line to make his debut for the Three Lions on two occasions, including against Netherlands on Wednesday, but has had to withdraw due to being unfit.

Despite this, Cleverley is ready to get back to playing and wants to go to Poland and Ukraine.

“My bad luck seems to be coming around on international breaks,” he told Mirror Football.

“But I don’t feel I’m jinxed. I feel that if I can get fit and find some good form between now and the end of the season, that first cap will come.

“If we have a good run in the Europa League, there are almost 20 games left to play with United this season.

“If I can play as many of them as possible and get in good form like I was at the start of the season, then I feel I can be part of the squad.

“It’s been a massive season of highs and lows for me. I broke into the United team, which I’d waited a long time to do, and I got an England call-up.

“But on the other side I’ve had to deal with injury setbacks.

“It’s been a tough season but I’ve been working really hard the past couple of months and hopefully the season will end on a massive high,” he stated.
