Trent Alexander-Arnold has signed a contract extension to 2025 at Liverpool, who are in advanced talks with the goalkeeper Alisson over following suit.

Alexander-Arnold, who came through Liverpool’s academy, said he felt honoured to be offered a new deal and that agreeing to it was “a no-brainer”.

The 22-year-old right-back told the club’s website: “I’m made up. It’s the only club I’ve ever really known, so to be here for this amount of time and extending to be here for a longer amount of time is amazing for me and my family. It’s a proud moment for me – it always is – signing a new contract here.

“It’s not too often [I think about it] but I think I’ve achieved so much; I’ve achieved so many dreams and goals that I never actually thought I would. I live the dream every day really.”

Alisson is also keen to agree a new deal. He joined from Roma in 2018 and has established himself as the first choice.
