BREAKING: Trent Alexander-Arnold Breaks Silence Amid Anfield Boos—“I Never Wanted to Leave”
In a deeply emotional turn of events at Anfield, Liverpool vice-captain Trent Alexander-Arnold has addressed the jeers he received during the Reds’ 2-2 draw against Arsenal, expressing his heartbreak over the fans’ reaction following his announcement to depart the club at season’s end.
“I didn’t believe they could do that to me,” Alexander-Arnold reportedly confided to close associates. “It was never my intention to leave. The club I always wanted to die for wants me out. The fans I called family disowned me.”
The 26-year-old, a product of Liverpool’s academy and a lifelong supporter, has been a cornerstone of the team, amassing over 350 appearances and contributing to multiple Premier League and Champions League triumphs. His decision to let his contract expire and pursue a new challenge—reportedly with Real Madrid—has ignited a firestorm among supporters.
During the Arsenal match, Alexander-Arnold’s introduction in the 67th minute was met with a chorus of boos from sections of the Anfield crowd. Despite the hostile reception, he maintained his composure, acknowledging the fans with applause.
