Trent Alexander-Arnold He returns on Tuesday to Liverpool, his childhood club and where he played until last season, as he struggles to adapt to his new life at Real Madrid.
A few meters from the door through which the English international will enter Anfield, there is still a huge mural with him dressed in red next to the phrase: “I am just a normal boy from Liverpool whose dream has come true.”
Alexander-Arnold’s journey from amateur to twice winning the Premier League and achieve glory in the Champions League It was, without a doubt, a fairy tale.
But, for many Liverpool fans, his departure tarnished his legacy after letting his contract expire, which meant the reigning Premier League champions received a meager sum of money for his transfer.
The full-back was even booed at times during his final months at Liverpool, despite contributing to the club’s only two league titles since 1990.
