Trent reveals his Istanbul inspiration

Trent Alexander-Arnold was six years old when Liverpool won the Champions League in 2005.

He was a hopeful youngster, a dreamer. “I was thinking, ‘that’s what I want to do one day’.

“We were all just standing on the wall outside, me and my mates, and playing footy in the front garden just waiting for them to come.

“Then you see all the players on the open-top bus going right past your house with the Champions League trophy. It was just unbelievable. You see your idols standing up there and you see a whole city so happy, and sitting in my mum’s car driving around seeing everywhere red.
