Arne Slot has praised Jarell Quansah's determination following the defender's England call-up by Thomas Tuchel on Friday.

The 22-year-old was received some negative press after being replaced at half-time on the opening day of the season at Ipswich Town but has established himself as an important member of Slot's squad.

He will likely start in the Carabao Cup final on Sunday,

"It says a lot about his mentality," said Slot. "I think last season everybody saw what a talent he is. He showed in recent performances that he outgrew being a talent and that's what Tuchel saw by calling him up."

Slot also highlighted Quansah's versatility, saying the defender offers the team a different attacking dimension while playing as a right-back.

"In the last few times he had to play for us it was in a position he is not completely used to as right full-back," he said. "But in my opinion, he has the quality to play in that position because he is strong, fast, very comfortable with the ball and it gives us an extra quality if we play him."
