In-form Aston Villa striker Emile Heskey has no intention of reversing his decision to retire from international football.
The former Liverpool and Wigan Athletic forward made his announcement in the summer after England's disastrous World Cup campaign in South Africa.
Fabio Capello had asked Heskey if he was willing to play for his country again because of the dearth of fit strikers currently at the England manager's disposal.
Since Gerard Houllier was appointed Villa boss last month, Heskey's form has been excellent but he is believed to have rejected Capello's advances.
Capello had said:"I saw Heskey against Wolves and he played very well and he is in a good moment. The new Villa manager (Houllier) knows him very well from his time at Liverpool.
"We will try to speak with Heskey. We need him at this moment. He is in good form. We are talking about him for the one game against Montenegro. We will try to speak with him. But he will decide."
Heskey scored seven times in 62 international appearances before quitting the England scene in July.Subscribe to Football FanCast News Headlines by Email
