England will take on Spain in a friendly at Sevilla's Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan stadium on Wednesday February 11.

The contest with the European champions was originally due to take place at the Bernabeu, home of Real Madrid.

The Football Association opposed that location on the grounds that several England players, including Ashley Cole, were racially abused by supporters during a friendly there in 2004.

Fabio Capello will see the game as an ideal preparation for the vital World Cup qualification double-header against Slovakia and Ukraine on March 28 and April 1 respectively.

The game in Seville will be shown live on ITV.
