Alexander-Arnold hasn't signed a new contract and is being pursued by Real Madrid, with Frimpong a possible like for like replacement.

“I was playing striker and scored a hat-trick in a final, I won player of the tournament,” the 24-year-old recalled to Rising Ballers. 

“There were scouts there like Liverpool, Bolton, Man City and a lot more.

“But I chose Liverpool first. I was going to sign for them but back then, driving wasn’t a thing, my family wasn’t driving like that and it was far.

“And obviously, Man City was local so I tried Man City next and it made more sense. It was 15 minutes on the bus, so yeah.”
