Arsenal physio Gary Lewin is to leave the club to take up a permanent role as head of physiotherapy with England.

Lewin has worked part-time for the national team since 1996 but will take up his full-time post from 1 August.

"I'm delighted that Gary is joining us," said England coach Fabio Capello. "He has a tremendous amount of experience and will be a huge asset."

Lewin added: "I'm obviously very sad to leave Arsenal after such a long time but very excited about the role."
