According to the Liverpool Echo, Liverpool’s pre-season preparations could be significantly tested with as many as 19 players potentially called up for international duty.
With the end of the league season, the Euros, Copa America, and Olympics are on the horizon. The Liverpool Echo suggests that an excessive number of call-ups will pose a substantial challenge for new manager Slott in terms of pre-season planning for the new campaign. The newspaper also outlines the number of Liverpool players expected to be summoned to their respective national teams.
Euros:
Konate (France), Diogo Jota (Portugal), Szoboszlai (Hungary), Gakpo, Van Dijk, and Hoever (Netherlands)
Andy Robertson, Ben Doak (Scotland), Trent Alexander-Arnold, Konate, Jones, Joe Gomez (England), and Jaro? (Czech Republic) have all been named in provisional squads.
Copa America:
Alisson (Brazil), Diaz (Colombia), MacAllister (Argentina), Nunez (likely Uruguay),
Olympics:
Mohamed Salah (Egypt) and远藤航 (Japan) both have the potential to be selected for their respective U23 teams as overage players.
