Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers believes that Raheem Sterling can thrive for England as long as he is given "freedom" in his role.
The 19-year-old earned a place in Roy Hodgson's World Cup squad following an impressive season, which resulted in Liverpool finishing two points behind Premier League champions Manchester City.
"He can replicate what he's done for us with England if he's given the freedom to play fearlessly," Rodgers told Switching the Play. "It's easy for people to forget that he's still very young because of his mature performances.
"As I've said, Raheem's been one of the most outstanding young players throughout Europe and we just want him to kick on now. He can become as great as he wants to be; we will help him in every aspect."
The Three Lions will play two warm-up matches in the United States before travelling to Brazil for their opening Group D match against Italy in Manaus on June 14.
