Liverpool KNOW the solution to Trent Alexander-Arnold problem | OneFootball

Liverpool have enjoyed a spectacular start to the season and are thriving under Arne Slot, but there are still three big unanswered questions at the club.

No matter how well the Reds perform on the pitch, every other question at every single press conference seems to in some way reference the future of three of Liverpool’s biggest stars.

Mohamed Salah, Virgil van Dijk and Trent Alexander-Arnold are all out of contract at the end of the season, and as it stands all three will be leaving Anfield for free in June.

Mohamed Salah is probably the hardest of the trio to replace, he has been Liverpool’s top performer in terms of output every season since his arrival at the club, and there is a lack of world-class right sided forwards available on the market, meaning any replacement will be very very expensive.

Virgil van Dijk would also be extremely difficult to replace. Although the defender is technically reaching the point of his career where he should start to decline, he still looks like the best defender in the world week in week out, so again any worthy replacement is going to cost a fortune.

Trent Alexander-Arnold is an outlier in this situation, however. Although there is no one in world football who can do what he does with the ball in terms of passing, there may already be a replacement ready at Liverpool who could step up and fill the hole that Trent’s departure would leave.
