'Trent is very much in contention' - Southgate denies claims he doesn't rate Alexander-Arnold

The England boss says the Liverpool star certainly has a chance to be part of his squad for the upcoming Euros

England boss Gareth Southgate denied claims that he doesn't rate Trent Alexander-Arnold, who was selected to the Three Lions' preliminary squad ahead of the Euros.

The Liverpool defender was dropped by Southgate for World Cup qualifiers in March amid a series of poor performances on the club level.

However, Alexander-Arnold starred for Liverpool in the closing weeks of the Premier League season, helping them to a third-place finish, with Southgate now saying that the defender's exclusion wasn't because the coach doesn't see him as good enough for the Three Lions.
