The morbidity of seeing Alexander-Arnold playing against Real Madrid – his contract is ending and he is linked to the whites – could have dissipated in one fell swoop.
The Liverpool full-back went off injured in the 25th minute of the match against Aston Villa, leaving his place for Conor Bradley.
Alexander-Arnold talks to Slot before retiring injured.EFE
The cameras, out of shot, suddenly captured the 26-year-old England international, lying on the ground with obvious symptoms of pain. He grabbed his hamstrings and was quickly replaced by Arne Slot.
From England, in fact, they suggest that ‘TAA’ had been suffering from discomfort since the last break. Therefore, it seems that, barring a miracle, he will not arrive on time for the Champions League match on the 27th against Real Madrid.
Alexander-Arnold’s could not be the only loss that the ‘reds’ will present against the whites. It should be remembered that Alisson is still injured, Elliott is out and Diogo Jota is also a doubt.
