Liverpool defender, Trent Alexander-Arnold has refused to speak about his future at the club. This is coming after he scored the only goal to secure a crucial win vs Leicester City, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, he hasn’t changed his stance about not speaking on his future until after the season, so he would remain focused on helping the team win the matches that will guarantee another EPL title after a very demanding season.
Trent added that Liverpool is now very close to winning the EPL this season, and with just one victory to go, he is happy that the wait will be over very soon.
His words, “I have said all season that I am not going to speak on my situation. I am not going to go into the details. But days like today are always special. Scoring goals, playing games, winning games, winning titles – they are special moments for me and I am glad to do my part.
Virgil [van Dijk] told me to soak it in. I am pretty sure it is my first left-foot goal. It’s taken a few years, but got there in the end. Probably the one type of goal that I was missing, but I was saving it for a right time.
Sure, it was [one of the best moments in a Liverpool shirt]. I have scored a few goals here at this stadium. We are so close to winning the title now and the first game back from injury as well, it was an important game for me. We are so close to wining – just one win away now. To do that especially with the fans here is a very, very special moment.”
WOW.
Liverpool Football Club is a professional football club based in Liverpool, England. The club competes in the Premier League, the top tier of English football. Founded in 1892, the club joined the Football League the following year and has played its home games at Anfield since its formation.
Domestically, the club has won 19 league titles, eight FA Cups, a record nine League Cups and 16 FA Community Shields. In international competitions, the club has won six European Cups, three UEFA Cups, four UEFA Super Cups—all English records—and one FIFA Club World Cup.
The club established itself as a major force in domestic and European football in the 1970s and 1980s, when Bill Shankly, Bob Paisley, Joe Fagan and Kenny Dalglish, led the club to a combined 11 League titles and four European Cups. Liverpool won two further European Cups in 2005 and 2019 under the management of Rafael Benítez and Jürgen Klopp, respectively; the latter led Liverpool to a 19th league title in 2020, the club’s first during the Premier League era.
Anfield was built in 1884 on land adjacent to Stanley Park. Situated 2 miles (3 km) from Liverpool city centre, it was originally used by Everton before the club moved to Goodison Park after a dispute over rent with Anfield owner John Houlding. Left with an empty ground, Houlding founded Liverpool in 1892 and the club has played at Anfield ever since. The capacity of the stadium at the time was 20,000, although only 100 spectators attended Liverpool’s first match at Anfield.
