Ferdinand overlooked as England's injury woes mount June 4, 2012 -- Updated 1123 GMT (1923 HKT) Rio Ferdinand has collected 81 England caps since making his debut in 1997. England coach Roy Hodgson overlooks defender Rio Ferdinand for a second time Hodgson calls up Liverpool's Martin Kelly as a replacement for the injured Gary Cahill France midfielder Yann M'Vila struggling to be fit for their match with England on June 9 Germany's Bastian Schweinsteiger is fit to travel with his teammates on Monday (CNN) -- England coach Roy Hodgson has overlooked Rio Ferdinand for a second time after electing to call-up Liverpool's Martin Kelly as a replacement for the injured Gary Cahill. Chelsea's Cahill suffered a double jaw fracture in England's 1-0 win over Belgium on Saturday, but instead of turning to Ferdinand, who has 81 caps, Hodgson drafted in Kelly -- who only made his international debut last month. Manchester United's Ferdinand used his official Twitter account on Sunday to say, "What reasons?????!!!," in response to Hodgson's claims he had not selected the 33-year-old for his 23-man Euro 2012 squad for "footballing reasons when the former West Brom manager announced his roster last month. Ferdinand' agent Jamie Moralee released a statement accusing Hodgson of a "lack of respect" for the United defender. "Rio's very disappointed," said Moralee. He thought he had done enough. It's very difficult to accept. This is a player with 81 caps for his country. I don't know anyone who understands it. It's not been handled in the right way. England's build-up to the tournament in Poland and Ukraine has been overshadowed by a pending court case which will see Chelsea's John Terry face trial for alleged racist abuse of Ferdinand's younger brother Anton. Terry denies the charges. What reasons?????!!! Rio Ferdinand Terry and Ferdinand have been England's preferred defensive pairing in recent years, but while the former will travel to Poland and Ukraine this week, the latter's international career now appears to be over. The injury to Cahill has added to England's injury woes. Cahill's club teammate Frank Lampard was forced to withdraw from the squad last week after picking up a thigh injury, while Manchester City midfielder Gareth Barry has been ruled out due to a groin injury. England play France in their opening match of Euro 2012 in the Ukrainian city of Donetsk on June 11, with French coach Laurent Blanc also facing injury worries. Rennes midfielder Yann M'Vila is struggling to be fit for the match after picking up an ankle sprain which the French Football Federation described as "moderately serious." M'Vila sustained the injury during France's 2-0 win over Serbia on Thursday. One midfielder who appears to have won his fitness battle is Germany's Bastian Schweinsteiger. The Bayern Munich star has recovered from a calf injury and will fly out to Germany's tournament base with the rest of his teammates on Monday.
