Trent Alexander-Arnold has been called up to the national team for Euro 2020 qualifiers after a successful season with the Reds.
However, Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp thinks that his place as England's No.1 defender is not secure.
“He had [difficult] moments already, it is not that his career went just like this [straight up],” said Klopp.
“He had moments and will have [more]. He is a very young lad. I have no clue why Gareth made the decision but I don’t think Kyle is that old to not having a chance anymore.
“It is a sign that England have a couple of really good opportunities with young players in Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Trent.
“Last year Kieran Trippier played there in the World Cup and was providing wonderful crosses, so there are obviously a couple of options.
“That creates a situation for a manager where you have to make a decision.
“But that doesn’t mean that from now on Trent is the No1 full back for the next 20-years. He has the skills to do so, but there are a lot of things you have to make sure.
“I am happy for him if he now has that position and is a bit closer to the first line-up. He is a really mature boy.
“From this point of view he is not 20 he is 25-26. But thank God he is 20! He a really mature - much more than I was when I was 20!”
