Liverpool have identified Ramsey as a long-term rival right-back for English star Trent Alexander-Arnold – a player Ramsey has highlighted as one of his biggest influences. “As a full-back, I watch Trent and his crosses and his technical skills – if I can reach that level, then it would be a bonus,” he said. “Andy Robertson at Liverpool and (Kieran) Tierney at Arsenal have been brilliant and are players I look out for, especially as they are full-backs like me. I feel I could continue to do that as well.” Speaking during the season, Dons director Jim Goodwin was not surprised by the teenager’s growing interest. He said: “Before January, Calvin was probably one of the best young backs in the world to be completely honest. This is no exaggeration. “His statistics, his data on his offensive numbers, his crosses in the big area were incredible. “He had a slight dip in the form. Either that was because his head was turned in January with whether he was moving or not.”
