Trent Alexander-Arnold has praised the city of Liverpool and its fans after helping his childhood team win a record-equaling 20th English league title. The right-back’s heartfelt message comes amid rumors about his future at Anfield.
WHAT HAPPENED?
Liverpool secured the 2024/25 Premier League trophy with a commanding 5-1 victory over Tottenham Hotspur at Anfield. The win put them level with Manchester United for most top-flight crowns in English football history. After the celebrations, Alexander-Arnold, raised in Liverpool and a graduate of the club’s academy, posted, “For the City. For the Fans.”
The homegrown star has been an important part of the Reds’ success this campaign, contributing three goals and six assists in 30 league matches despite missing several games due to injury. His dedication echoes the emotional scenes inside Anfield and across the city as fans marked the arrival of a new era under head coach Arne Slot.
A TITLE WIN WITH ADDED UNCERTAINTY
While Liverpool’s victory has brought joy, it has also highlighted uncertainty about Alexander-Arnold’s future. With this contract set to expire in two months and talks ongoing, rumors have spread about a possible move to Real Madrid.
Despite reports of discussions with the club’s owner, John Henry, no final decision has been made. The defender’s public commitment to the city and fans shows his strong ties to Liverpool, but it does not end the debate about where he will play next season. This uncertainty comes as fellow stars Mohamed Salah and Virgil van Dijk have already secured new deals.
WHAT’S NEXT FOR LIVERPOOL?
After winning the title, Liverpool’s focus now shifts to their remaining fixtures, aiming to finish the season on a high. The Reds currently sit top of the table, three points ahead of Manchester United and well clear of third-placed Manchester City. Their next match is against Wolverhampton Wanderers, who are battling for a mid-table finish. With title celebrations ongoing, fans will be watching closely for any updates on Alexander-Arnold’s contract situation.
Keeping their vice-captain would send a strong message as Liverpool start a new chapter under Slot and prepare to defend their crown in 2025/26.
