Kyle Walker-Peters hopes his loan to Southampton boosts his chances of a call-up to the England squad.

The 22-year-old join Saints from Tottenham in January after finding playing time hard to come by under Jose Mourinho.

"Definitely, because I think the main thing for a player my age is just playing," Walker-Peters told Sky Sports.

"At Tottenham I had opportunities but I never really got a run and I think to establish yourself, to be considered for England, you need a run of games.

"Of course you need to play well, but once you are playing you are looked at a bit more.

"But yes competition for right-back is unbelievable. You've got Kieran Trippier, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Kyle Walker. Reece James is playing well at Chelsea.

"I'm always trying to compare myself to those players because if I want to play I need to be just as good or better than them.

"It won't be easy but it's something I've definitely got my eye on."
