Liverpool manager Arne Slot has warmly welcomed vice-captain Trent Alexander-Arnold back into the squad following his lengthy spell on the sidelines.
Slot expressed his delight at the defender’s return, praising Trent’s influence both on and off the pitch. The Dutch coach highlighted how much the team has missed Alexander-Arnold’s creativity, leadership, and tactical awareness in recent weeks.
“Having Trent back is a huge boost for us,” Slot said. “He brings a unique energy — his range of passing, composure on the ball, and ability to control the tempo from deep make a massive difference to our game. Beyond that, he’s a leader — someone the younger players look up to.”
With Liverpool enduring a difficult run of form, Trent’s comeback arrives at a crucial moment. His presence not only solidifies the defense but also restores the attacking drive and precision from right-back that the Reds have been lacking.
Supporters at Anfield are equally excited, hoping their hometown star’s return will help reignite the team’s rhythm and confidence as they look to get their season back on track.
