Trent Alexander-Arnold will go to the World Cup next month, but not in the capacity that he would necessarily want, according to Michael Owen.
The Liverpool right-back's place in Gareth Southgate's squad has been called into question after the Reds' number 66 was left out of the squad altogether for the Three Lions' Nations League match against Germany last month.
Alexander-Arnold's club form has also been criticised in the early stages of the season and with Reece James, Kieran Trippier and Kyle Walker all vying for a right-sided defensive berth, speculation has been rife about the Liverpool star being the man to miss out. But former Reds striker Michael Owen, who made his name on the global stage as an 18-year-old by scoring a wonder goal against Argentina in the 1998 World Cup, believes he will still be on the plane to Qatar.
