Player Bio: Trent Alexander Arnold

European champion, Club World Cup champion and Premier League champion, this blog is going to be about Trent Alexander Arnold, with my views on his importance at Liverpool Football Club and his career so far.

He was born on the 7th of October 1998 in West Derby, Liverpool. At just the age of 6, he was given the opportunity in the Liverpool academy. At the age of 16, he captained the youth team and played in a variety of positions, before finding that right back was his perfect position for him. 

He made his professional debut for Liverpool on the 25th of October 2016 in a 2-1 victory over Tottenham Hotspur. Moreover, Trent earned a spot in the EFL Team of the round. He started in the next round of the League cup in a 2-0 win over Leeds United, where he was awarded Man of the Match. 

He was called up to the first team as Nathaniel Clyne was out injured. On the 15th of August 2017 he scored his first professional goal for Liverpool in a 2-1 win over German side Hoffenheim making him the third youngest player to score on their European debut for Liverpool. Later on in the Champions League group stages he managed to score in a 7-0 win over Maribor. In the same season, he became the youngest Liverpool player to start in a Champions League Final.

In the 2018-19 season Liverpool had a good season finishing second in the Premier League and winning the Champions League, after a 2-0 win over Tottenham. After this he broke records for becoming the youngest player to play in 2 consecutive Champions League Finals and the most assists for a defender in the Premier League with 12. His success didn't stop there because he was nominated for a Ballon D'or and he won the Club World cup, the Super Cup and now the Premier League. 

I believe that Trent Alexander Arnold is a very important part to the Liverpool squad because of the amount of chances he creates, his pace and his ability to drive the team up the pitch. I have seen him play multiple times, including his Man of the Match performance against Barcelona last year, and he never fails to impress me and many other Liverpool fans. His future is very bright and I believe that someday he will be a Ballon D'or winner.
