Trent Alexander-Arnold has expressed his preference for Jürgen Klopp as the next England manager, should the position become available.

The England and Liverpool defender reflected positively on his past experiences with Klopp, describing their time together as filled with “amazing memories” and a strong, “amazing bond.”

Despite his endorsement, Alexander-Arnold admits he would be astonished if Klopp were to take on the role.

Klopp, who has been linked with the England job since Gareth Southgate’s resignation following England’s 2-1 defeat to Spain in the Euro 2024 final, seems to be enjoying his current break from football.

Alexander-Arnold noted that Klopp’s social media activity and recent public statements suggest he is content with his time off, making it seem unlikely that he would step into the England manager’s position.

While names like Graham Potter, Eddie Howe, and Lee Carsley have been floated as potential candidates, Alexander-Arnold’s comments highlight his belief in Klopp’s potential but also recognize the improbability of such a move given Klopp’s current enjoyment of his hiatus.

Galatasaray president Dursun Ozbek has confirmed that Victor Osimhen will stay with the club next season. The Nigerian striker spent last season on loan at the Turkish champions. On Sunday, Osimhen turned down a big-money offer from Saudi Arabia’s Al-Hilal, who were willing to activate the €75 million release clause in his contract.

At 26, Osimhen wants to keep playing in Europe. Ozbek revealed that talks are still underway to finalize the details of his contract. “Victor Osimhen is staying at Galatasaray. His feelings will play a key role. Negotiations are in progress,” Ozbek told Hurriyet. “We hope to share good news with you next week.”
