Young Liverpool winger Sheyi Ojo will miss a large part of Jurgen Klopp's pre season plans after being included in England's squad for the upcoming under-19 European Championships.





Ojo was included in manager Aidy Boothroyd's squad for the upcoming tournament which is set to take place throughout July in Germany.

England are among eight teams to take part in the competition alongside Austria, Croatia, France, the hosts Germany, Italy, Holland and Portugal.





The Young Lions will meet France, Croatia and Holland in the group stages.





Ojo's campaign will conclude at the earliest on July 18, meaning he will already have missed Liverpool's first pre season outings against Tranmere Rovers, Fleetwood Town and Wigan Athletic. Whilst the Reds face Huddersfield Town just two days after the conclusion of England's campaign.





Progression to the final of the tournament, and the time granted away from football by Liverpool mean that Ojo would also be unavailable for a portion of the Merseyside club's tour of the United States.





They will compete in the International Champions Cup where they will face Premier League rivals Chelsea, as well as AC Milan and AS Roma before a clash with Barcelona at Wembley.





Liverpool's final pre season game takes Jurgen Klopp back to his former side Mainz, before the Premier League kicks off the following week.





Competition for places will be fierce under Klopp as he looks to implement his 'geggenpressing' style of play with this his first summer in charge at Anfield.





Whilst Ojo will be hoping to establish a first team place ahead of the 2016/17 season after a successful end to the 2015/16 campaign, the European tournament will come as a blow for his chances.





Whilst gaining valuable experience, the former MK Dons talent's fitness level will fall behind the rest of the playing staff.





A few members of the team returned to Liverpool's training base on Saturday to begin pre season testing under new fitness coach Andreas Kornmayer.
