Liverpool boss Arne Slot praised Jarell Quansah for reacting well to the early season setback and earning an England call-up.

New England manager Thomas Tuchel has named the 22-year-old in his squad for the upcoming March international break.

However, both the England international and his Liverpool boss Slot remain focused on the Carabao Cup final against Newcastle United.



Liverpool centre-back Jarell Quansah could play an important role for Arne Slot during the upcoming Carabao Cup final against Newcastle United.

Speaking in his pre-match press conference (via YouTube), Slot praised Quansah for his strong mentality to bounce back after early setbacks this season with Liverpool and for earning an England call-up.

Slot substituted Quansah in the first Premier League game of the season against Ipswich Town at half-time after he struggled to win duels.



However, Quansah gradually regained the performance level that he showed last season under former manager Jurgen Klopp.
