Amara Nallo Liverpool youngster Amara Nallo has been rewarded with a call-up to England’s U20 squad, just weeks after facing a difficult start to his senior career at Anfield. He immediately returned to the pitch for Liverpool’s U21s, captaining the side to a 4-2 win over Middlesbrough.



A chance to rewrite the script for Amara Nallo Ben Futcher has included him in the England U20 squad for their upcoming clash with Japan U20 on November 14 in Doncaster. The international break has arrived again — yes, just as Liverpool were building momentum — but for Nallo, this pause might be perfectly timed.

It gives him a clean slate and the chance to swap the red of Liverpool for the red of England, hopefully without seeing another red from the referee. Reds fans will hope he returns from England duty with confidence restored — and cards kept firmly in the referee’s pocket.
