The 24-year-old was replaced just before the 70 minute mark after alerting the bench to the effects of cramp.

It shouldn’t hold him back, however, with Uruguay’s first Copa match slated for Sunday, June 23 against Panama in Miami.

Al-Hilal, Al-Nassr, Al-Ittihad and Al-Ahli are the biggest clubs in the region, attracting stars such as Neymar, Sadio Mane, Karim Benzema and Riyad Mahrez to the league over the last 12 months.

Trent Alexander-Arnold started in midfield for England in midweek before moving to his more well-known right-back role. The Liverpool star even got a goal as England won 3-0 against Bosnia & Herzegovina.

 

Questions over the player’s best position have persisted for years now, of course, but it appears he might be set for a new one at Euro 2024. That’s according to the Mirror, who claim Gareth Southgate is ‘leaning heavily’ towards starting Alexander-Arnold alongside Declan Rice at the base of his midfield.

Ederson, 24, was a standout for La Dea in midfield last season alongside another reported Reds transfer target in the shape of Teun Koopmeiners.

Together they drove the Bergamo side to the Europa League title, decisively defeating Xabi Alonso’s much-vaunted Bayer Leverkusen in the final.

Liverpool’s Jarell Quansah has just been handed a lifeline to make it into England’s Euro 2024 squad. The defender was expected to miss out.

 

Harry Maguire has been left out of the England squad through injury. Gareth Southgate will not risk taking the Manchester United defender as he won’t be able to play at least the Group Stage.

And with that, England’s centre-back options take a knock. Maguire was expected to partner John Stones at the back and if he can’t, Marc Guéhi will presumably pick up that role.

That would still leave England one centre-back short, however, and Southgate would almost certainly need another one to fill the void. It’s something hands a lifeline to Jarell Quansah.

A woman being investigated in Brazil for homicide shares the same name as Alisson Becker’s wife, Natalia Becker, leading to false accusations being levelled against the Liverpool goalkeeper’s partner.
