Liverpool fullback Alexander-Arnold delighted signing new contract

Liverpool fullback Trent Alexander-Arnold has signed a new four-year contract.

The England international now looks set to stay with his boyhood club for the foreseeable future as he signed a deal to keep him at Anfield until 2025 at the earliest, and he is now believed to be one of the highest-earners along with the likes of Virgil van Dijk, Mohamed Salah, Sadio Mane and Roberto Firmino.

Speaking to Liverpool's official website, he said: “I'm honoured to be given the opportunity and to be shown the trust in the club to be given an extension, so it was a no-brainer for me

“The state the club is in and where I'm at in my career is always a good option for me. To extend and make sure I'm here longer is always a good thing. I'm made up.

“It's the only club I've ever really known, so to be here for this amount of time and extending to be here for a longer amount of time is amazing for me and my family.

“It's a proud moment for me – it always is – signing a new contract here. To be given the trust, like I said before, by the club and the staff is an amazing feeling."

He went on to add: “It's not too often [I think about it] but I think I've achieved so much, I've achieved so many dreams and goals that I never actually thought I would," he continued.

“I live the dream every day really. Being able to represent the club and to be in and around names and players, and obviously managers and staff, that are world class every day is a privilege for me and I'm very fortunate to be in the position I am."
