Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher has called on manager Arne Slot to side with Trent Alexander-Arnold for the rest of the season, despite the defender's win against Leicester City.
Carragher's suggestion comes from the ongoing uncertainty of Alexander-Arnold's future, and the report links him to a potential migration of Real Madrid after it expires this summer.
Premier League giants have managed to secure new deals for Mohamed Salah and Virgil Van Dijk, but Alexander-Arnold is now showing signs of signing a new contract, and he has been in contact with moving to Real Madrid.
Carragher praised Alexander-Arnold's quality and appreciated his performance, but he hoped the club would provide more opportunities for the club's future Conor Bradley.
“You can't replace him because what he is…” As the goal reported, he said on the Sky Movement.
“We talked about why he is so much about him, and I think why he is the most fulfilling person we may have seen in the Premier League, because he is unique and he is unique. [Micah Richards] He was mentioned on defense just now, and now most top defenders don't throw it on them because they're not very good on defense. But he is so unique on the ball, I think I said four to five years ago, like having Kevin de Bruyne play right back, that's what he can do. He can go up and change the game, so Liverpool won't replace it.
“So Liverpool need to replace his creativity, they don't do it from right back, they may need to do it from the midfield position of the attack or from the left wing position. So the team has to develop that way. Now, where they can replace him, is Conor Bradley right back. He has to be like Andy Robertson, who was at his peak, was a suitable defender, up and down, offensive on the wing, maybe overlapping, crosses come in, Liverpool's defender does that.
“So you won't be able to replace him, so forget, but the big decisions made by Liverpool, or a few decisions from now until the end of the season, and the summer is… If Trent hadn't promised, he obviously didn't tell the manager the manager for the next season, he shouldn't have started the game. He shouldn't have…” He shouldn't have…”
Liverpool has plans to replace right-back
Liverpool almost won the championship because they only need three points to win the league, and Carragher hopes that Carragher will feel the manager's confidence rather than the Dutch manager giving playing time to motorsport players.
Fans were upset when Alexander-Arnold refused to sign a new deal, but they loved the moment the defenders offered against Leicester City.
It showed his quality and once again proved that the England international was one of the best players in the world.
Nottingham Forest's Ola Aina replaced the club's Alexander-Arnold on Liverpool's radar, according to the offside source found.
