Kieran Trippier says he is ready to compete to be England's right-back at Euro2020.

The Atletico Madrid star is competing with Reece James, Trent Alexander-Arnold and Kyle Walker to make the final 26-man squad.

"It's fierce (competition)," Trippier told PA. "There's so many right-backs.

"I got left out of the Nations League and it's all about bouncing back.

"Life's all about challenges but we've got fierce competition.

"But I just need to do as well as I can for my club, try and give very good performances every week.

"But I had competition even when I was at Tottenham with Walks for a good few years, and England as well.

"For me, it's just about doing as well as I can from a club, trying to achieve big things, especially this season and, yeah, just give my all.

"Personally, that's all I can say."
