Kieran Trippier has the opportunity to bolster his game-time this summer after making a full recovery from a foot injury. The England full-back completed his first 90 minutes since February in the 2-1 win at Burnley.
Trippier will now have a short break before linking up with the Three Lions again for the first time since a 5-0 win in Andorra during World Cup qualification. But it is the UEFA Nations League that could offer Trippier the chance to boost his chances of playing at the greatest show on earth in Qatar.
Ahead of Trippier and England lie away games in Hungary and Germany before home clashes - in Wolverhampton - against Italy and Hungary again on UK soil. It gives Trippier the chance to be ready for the challenge of pre-season after months of sidelines.
