Euro 2024: I love watching him play – Lineker backs 25-year-old star to make England squad

Former Barcelona striker, Gary Lineker has backed 25-year-old Liverpool defender Trent Alexander-Arnold to make England Euro 2024 squad this summer.

Lineker, who spoke as Liverpool defeated Fulham 3-1 on Sunday, said he loves watching the right-back play on the pitch.

Speaking about Alexander-Arnold, Lineker told The Rest is Football podcast (via The Boot Room):

“Did you see the Trent Alexander-Arnold free-kick? Gorgeous, wasn’t it?”

“I’m sure he will (get into the England squad). He’s got something different in certain games. Everyone knows I’m a huge fan of Trent, I love watching him play.

“As a striker, you’d love to play with him. His crossing of the ball is as good as anyone. His passing is as good as anyone’s in the English game.”
