'I owe everything to him' - Alexander-Arnold on Klopp

Trent Alexander-Arnold says he "owes everything as a player" to departing Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp and conceded it will feel "weird" to return next season without the German in charge at Anfield.

Klopp gave Alexander-Arnold his first-team debut in October 2016 shortly after his 18th birthday and he has since won every major domestic trophy with the Reds, as well as the Champions League, Super Cup and Club World Cup.

"I owe everything to him, really, as a player," the England international, 25, told The Overlap podcast.

"I was thinking about this recently. The only thing you can ever ask for as a young player is opportunity. All you can do is hope that when you get to 18 or19, you've got a manager that's willing to give you a chance and I was fortunate enough to have that.

"Not only that, he put his arm round me and guided me through it, through the ups and downs, the winning of stuff, losing things.

"Good games, bad games, because your first bad game you think you're never going to kick a ball again. You think: 'I'm done'."
