Technical director Dan Ashworth will speak to England players and review how they spend their time off while on international duty after a number of high-profile incidents.

Liverpool's Jordan Henderson and Adam Lallana were reported to have visited a strip club in Bournemouth the night after England beat Scotland 3-0 at Wembley.

On the same night Wayne Rooney and Phil Jagielka were pictured drinking with a wedding party at the England team hotel in Hertfordshire.

Ashworth will speak to players to determine if new guidelines need to be issued over how they spend their time off.

All England players are expected to adhere to a code of conduct which was introduced in 2012.

There is nothing in the code that bans visits to strip clubs but it does say that "the highest standards of conduct and behaviour are expected at all times, including when players are not on international duty".
