Following Liverpool 1-1 draw with Manchester City, Jurgen Klopp criticized England manager Gareth Southgate for not giving Joe Gomez more international caps. Klopp emphasized Gomez versatility and expressed his belief that the defender deserves a recall for Euro 2024. Gomez who last played for England in 2020 has been a key player for Liverpool this season.

Klopp commended Gomez ability to cover multiple positions and highlighted his importance to the team. The manager urged Southgate to consider Gomez capabilities and versatility in the upcoming squad announcement for England friendlies against Brazil and Belgium on March 14. Gomez who missed the Euros in 2020 due to injury has had discussions with Southgate about his international future and is eager to represent England in major tournaments.
