Campbell returned to the US setup during the last international camp. He featured twice for Mauricio Pochettinos side in wins over Peru and Canada.

Campbell was given the captaincy by James Morrison in the summer.

Business as usual for Gakpo after summer speculation

Liverpool forward Cody Gakpo has moved on from a hectic summer in which he almost left the club.

The Netherlands international looked to be heading for the exit until an 80 million deal with Manchester City, who moved on the back of Tottenhams interest, fell through.

Gakpo knew the club were trying to recruit Bradley Barcola, a direct competitor for his left-wing position, and while the France international duly arrived in a deal worth up to 123m the Dutchman was retained at Anfield.

However, he bears no ill feeling and insists it is business as usual for him now the season is well underway.

Gakpo, whose three goals match the tally of Barcola so far, was asked whether he was playing with a point to prove.

No, not really, my mindset has stayed the same like it always has been. I try to perform, he said ahead of the Champions League game against Fenerbahce in Istanbul.

But it was quite a hectic summer regarding a lot of topics. I just try to enjoy football and enjoy life.

On what conversation he had with the club after the City move fell through, he added: It wasnt much of a discussion was it? The decision was made and that was it.
