Jack Collison would relish the chance to play at the Olympics: Action Images
West Ham United midfielder Jack Collison has admitted he would love to represent Great Britain at this summer's Olympics.
Collison told Sky Sports News: "Obviously with the Olympics being on the doorstep, it could be a great opportunity, obviously there is a good lot players eligible to play, so we just have to wait and see what happens.
"I definitely wouldn't turn it down if the call came. It would be a great opportunity. The Olympics doesn't come around often and although there are a lot of people against it, I think it would be a great opportunity, particularly being on the doorstep of where I am now.
"And if I'm not involved in the Olympics I'll still obviously be watching."
