There were a few seasons where Jürgen Klopp had to go out and defend his right-back. Alexander-Arnold had simply created enormous expectations for every single kick he had on the ball after huge success in Klopp’s title seasons. Now no one is asking questions about the England international anymore. Real Madrid confirm Alexander-Arnold’s status in the market, the La Liga giant has defined the 26-year-old as a top target when his contract expires in the summer.
A wind is blowing against Madrid for the player, Rafael Benitez strongly recommends that the 26-year-old should make this choice. Still, on Sunday, Trent Alexander-Arnold will step onto the arena as the youngest player in club history to reach an impressive milestone. He can’t leave Liverpool after this.
In the match against Wolverhampton on Sunday, the right-back will reach his 250th game in a Liverpool shirt, at the age of 26 years and 132 days. Nobody, absolutely no one else, has reached this number at that young age.
Club icon Steven Gerrard held the record, when he in December 2006 reached 250 games at the age of 26 years and 200 days (Opta).
Trent Alexander-Arnold, stay and continue a Liverpool career, where new records are being set.
