No2 in Liverpool Football Club’s official Icons series The new reds vice-captain and his sensational story so far He’s Alexander-Arnold He’s Alexander-Arnold He’s Alexander-Arnold The Scouser in our team! Trent Alexander-Arnold is living the dream as the local lad proudly playing for his boyhood club. As he begins his first season as Reds vice-captain, this official souvenir special – the second in the club’s new Icons series – tells his sensational story so far. From his lightning progress in the LFC Academy to his breakthrough season in 2016/17; becoming a Champions League winner at just 20 years of age and then a Premier League champion; redefining the modern full-back role with assist after outrageous assist and stunning free-kicks; and now adapting to a hybrid role which has earned him a new nickname: the Scouse Pirlo! Featuring stunning imagery and fascinating archive interviews with the matchday programme and magazine, this Trent special is one to treasure. “I’ve always felt I’ve been a mature person for my age, but every year I’ve tried to take on more responsibility for the team and how we play and how we conduct ourselves. You need to lay the foundations first and you need to act like a leader before you’re given that responsibility – that’s something I try to do every year.” “Being made vice-captain has come at a good time, at a good age. I’ve played a lot of games, I’ve been through a lot in football, and to be able to have this kind of role is something I’m proud of and want to use as a stepping-stone to go on and lead the team someday.
