Daily Star reports that Trent's improvement under Jurgen Klopp may have played a huge role in the manager's decision to include him in the list of players that will prosecute the competition.

The publication added that the versatile defender could now dream of making more appearances for the English national team as they take on Croatia, Scotland, and the Czech Republic at Wembley this month.

Sky Sports earlier reported that a U-turn will see Alexander-Arnold attend the major tournament, which will have lenient rules on player swaps.

This tournament gives room for unlimited replacements of players before the first match in case of any serious injuries or illnesses - including Covid-19 scares.

Meanwhile, goalkeepers can be replaced during the competition if they are physically incapacitated even if the national side still has two fit goalkeepers at their disposal.

This summer's football event is billed to kick off on Friday, June 11.
