Liverpool star Trent Alexander-Arnold has named former Liverpool manager as his most-preferred candidate to take up the vacant England Managerial job after Southgate’s resignation.

The former England Boss stepped down from his role after growing concern of his ability to lead the Three Lions to win a silverware.

Trent said: “It was similar to how I felt when my club manager Jurgen Klopp was leaving. They were the people who gave me my debuts, and made my dreams come true.”

Asked about Klopp, who quit the Reds in May, as the new England manager, he said: “I enjoyed every moment I worked with him, we shared amazing memories, forged an amazing relationship, and an amazing bond. So of course if that were to happen, we would pick up where we left off.”

But he admitted: “I would be surprised if he did take it. It was clear when he announced when he was leaving, the conversations I have had with him, everything on social media, he seems to be enjoying his time off, so it would be a huge surprise.”
