Liverpool defender Trent Alexander-Arnold took to his Twitter account (h/t Liverpool Echo) to reveal that he was ‘gutted’ to miss the England squad for the 2020 UEFA Euros due to an injury.
The Englishman pulled up with an injury in the final minutes of his team’s against Austria earlier this week. Scans after the game revealed
that it was a grade two quad tear.That, of course, requires a recovery period of four to six weeks, hence forcing Trent to withdraw from the England squad. The youngster worked hard to be included in Gareth Southgate’s plans for the summer.
But it seems that it just wasn’t written in the stars. He took to his social media account and posted a photo himself in an England kit with a two-worded caption that said, ‘Absolutely gutted’.
The 26-man England squad is now one man short after the Liverpool defender pulled out, with Southgate primed to announce the 22-year-old’s replacement shortly.
Trent’s focus would hereby lie on a rehabilitation programme in order to recover from the injury. He targets to be back by July 12, the day when Liverpool gather to have their first training session of the new season. (h/t Liverpool Echo
)Another Liverpool player, Jordan Henderson, is included in the England team and is set to see through the campaign with the Three Lions. Trent’s injury comes as a grim reminder of the injury problems Jurgen Klopp had with his team last year.
But he would hope to have his main men back in time for the new season as Liverpool look to bounce back from an underwhelming season and make a charge for the Premier League title once again.
