LONDON (Reuters) - Former Arsenal defender Sol Campbell is to work in the England Under-21's coaching setup as part of the Football Association's drive to increase opportunities for black, Asian, minority ethnic (BAME) coaches in all levels of the national team.

Campbell, who has criticised the lack of top-level management openings for himself and other BAME coaches, will work with England U21 manager Aidy Boothroyd in November, the FA said in a statement on Wednesday.
