Trent Alexander-Arnold has the potential to become England's answer to Cafu and could become a star at the World Cup — if given the chance.
That assessment was delivered by Pep Lijnders, Liverpool's assistant manager and a man who has worked with Alexander-Arnold since his early teens.
Alexander-Arnold was a driving force in Liverpool's pursuit of four trophies last season. His position on Liverpool's right side is almost untouchable but, for England, it is an entirely different situation.
The 23-year-old has had difficulty, for a number of reasons, pinning down a consistent run of games for Gareth Southgate and has rarely been able to show his club form.
