Milan midfielder Clarence Seedorf has backed England coach Fabio Capello to lead the Three Lions to World Cup glory next summer.

The Dutchman, who was coached by the Italian during his days at Real Madrid, believes England have everything it takes to taste success on the biggest stage.

He can also see European champions Spain, and five-time winners Brazil challenging.

"Capello is a bulldozer, he always does things his own way," Seedorf told the press, as reported by La Repubblica.

"I think he is the right person for the England bench. Also, he has players now who are playing together like a real team. I can see England, Spain and Brazil as favourites for South Africa."

The combative middle-man, who plies his trade in Italy, didn't mention the Azzurri as potential winners.
