“But that is something I would love to do one day. Captaining Liverpool is something I have always dreamed of and it is something that motivates me.”

Alexander-Arnold joined the Liverpool academy at the age of six.

He helped the Reds to back-to-back Champions League finals in his first two full seasons in the side, winning the second one, and broke the record for most assists in a Premier League season by a defender last season, with 12.

Liverpool lead the Premier League this season and are favourites for the title, and Alexander-Arnold has no desire to move elsewhere.

“I’ve always been a Liverpool player, Liverpool has always been my home,” he added.

“I have never thought about changing clubs. When I grew up, the dream was always to play for Liverpool.
