Alexander-Arnold reveals Arne Slot’s ambition at Liverpool, seemingly takes swipe at Jurgen Klopp

Liverpool defender Trent Alexander-Arnold has revealed what it feels like working with new Liverpool boss Arne Slot as he seemingly took a dig at former coach Jurgen Klopp.

Alexander-Arnold has continued his impressive display at Liverpool and has grown to become an important player under Slot just as he was under Klopp.

However, the England international while outlining his ambitions under Slot spoke highly of the Dutch manager and took a dig at Klopp.

The Reds defender said to reporters: “I said to him [Slot] that I would like to be the defender that no one wants to come up against in Europe. We agreed that he will be harsh on me. If any time an attacker gets by me and gets past me, he will call it out in meetings, and individual meetings, and say this cannot happen.

“We go through every game together and he highlights where he wants me to improve. Even after the Milan game, we had about 20 clips going through what I could have done better and the good parts as well.”

He added: “It is really refreshing to have a manager who will help and guide and teach me how to be better as a player. I am someone who wants to learn, someone who wants to be the best and someone who strives to be the best ever.”

Alexander-Arnold was handed his senior debut by Klopp in 2016 and it was under the German manager’s tutelage that full-bacthe English full-back established himself as one of the top defenders in the Premier League.

Jurgen Klopp is currently without a job as the German tactician continue to a break from active football.
