The 19-year-old impressed for England in the friendly victories over Spain and Sweden.
Capello has now revealed that Jones reminds him of AC Milan legend Franco Baresi and Real Madrid legend Fernando Hierro.
Capello said: “Yes, it is difficult to find a player like him, really difficult.
“In my career I found probably two players like that. They were Franco Baresi and Fernando Hierro who played as midfielders and after they played centre-half and I think were really good players.
“Jones can play in different positions at the top level.
“He is so young but he is a big talent because when he receives the ball he always plays without fear. Good passes and good solutions. Every time he chooses the best solution.
“I know something about football and the solution that he chooses every time when he receives the ball is always the best.”
Capello added: “For me the Sweden game was really important to see Jones play in front of the back four.
“That is because if Scott Parker will not be fit I will have a solution. He can play every other position but for me it was a really important test for him. I’m lucky and happy because Jones and Jack Rodwell have shown they are really good players.
“They can play against all the teams and play with the seniors without problems. And you know when you play with young players, they put something on the pitch, something new, something more.”
