A fresh report has been revealed
There are an abundance of options to compliment Declan Rice in midfield, such as through Adam Wharton, Conor Gallagher and Kobbie Mainoo.
However, a fresh source has told Telegraph Sport that the 25-year-old Trent Alexander-Arnold is the player most likely to start:
“A lot can change, obviously, but Trent was given the number 8 shirt for a reason.”
Alexander-Arnold hasn’t featured on many occasions in midfield for England, however Gareth Southgate has recently shown he can get the best out of Liverpool’s huge talent in this position.
Mainoo and Gallagher have additionally impressed this year with individual performances, with recent debutant Wharton also bursting onto the scene against Bosnia.
Recent Champions League winner Jude Bellingham is most likely to feature in a more advanced role as a consistent mainstay in the team of talent.
