Given his recent on-field achievements, Trent Alexander-Arnold’s childhood is easily overlooked.
The Liverpool FC right defense was raised in the city of his birth and has been an avid football fan since joining the academy at the age of five.
In April 2018, he tweeted a nostalgic snapshot of himself as a young boy accepting his first football trophy.
His first thought is of himself picking up a reward from the boys club he used to belong to. Playing the beautiful game is every young football fan’s dream.
I can not recall the exact moment I made the decision I wanted to play professional football. However, I can guarantee that experiences like this inspired me to become one.
“As the years went by, I realized how much sacrifice and hard work it takes to be a football player.”
Jurgen Klopp and Trent Alexander-Arnold are two Liverpool players.
The West Derby-born defender posted a picture of himself strolling with boss Jurgen Klopp earlier this week. The manager was the one he had welcomed as a young youngster with a passion.
“It was an amazing season for the team and me individually, but I am heartbroken that we were not the champions,” he said. We are really grateful for your amazing support. Moving forward, towards Madrid.
With a plethora of photos of him grinning with the team on Instagram, the young star’s gratitude for his job, teammates, and fans is evident.
His followers went crazy over a recent snapshot of him relaxing in the corner of his massive sofa since he always appears so pleased in them.
Slumbering on his massive crushed velvet couch that could fit the entire team, he is soaking in the glory of his incredible performance against Barcelona at Anfield.
Over the years, supporters have been given a few peeks into Trent’s life off the field.
He on a guys’ trip to Miami last year, and in 2016, he shared a picture of him and his brother lounging on the beach.
His other favorite squad shot is from April 2017, right after Liverpool defeated West Brom 1-0.
Trent used the muscle emoji in a simple and useful way in the description he wrote for the picture of him and his happy teammates.
There was another as the Liverpool players celebrated their May 2, 2018, journey to Kiev for the Champions League final.
Trent captioned the photo with, “Yesssss!” We are heading to Kiev! This team is incredible! Excellent selection for the hat.
Like many other Liverpool FC players, Trent is excited to help out at charitable functions and cheer up young supporters.
The former St. Mary’s College student made the announcement, “Great to meet Louie and his family today at Alder Hey hospital,” during a visit to Alder Hey Children’s Hospital. I hope you recover quickly so we can kick around YNWA.
He has also shown his support for Under Armour’s Power In Pink initiative, which celebrates women who have fought breast cancer.
Following his selection for the England team, he negotiated a boot sponsorship deal with a performance clothing company. The ECHO reports that Alexander-Arnold intends to purchase real estate in Liverpool and build community facilities like football fields with the money from the agreement.
Trent has reportedly gone back to his old schools, St. Mary’s and Rainhill, to help with assemblies and award ceremonies. The Independent cites Trent’s conviction that “it was the right thing to do” as another proof of his altruism.
