Danny Rose
England left-back Danny Rose will not be accompanied by his family at the World Cup in Russia as the Tottenham defender is fearful they could suffer racial abuse. "I'm not worried for myself, but I've told my family I don't want them going out there because of racism and anything else that may happen," Rose said.
"I don't want to be worrying when I'm trying to prepare for games for my family's safety. If anything happens to me, it wouldn't affect me like it would if my family had been abused."
