Liverpool FC news: Alexander-Arnold sends HEARTFELT message to Manchester City 'wonderkid'

Trent Alexander-Arnold has sent a gift to a Manchester City and England academy wonderkid over the weekend.

Alexander-Arnold has had a positive season so far, performing well in the opening three games, and impressing for the national team over the international break. 

Despite a shock loss to Nottingham Forest on the weekend, during which he played both in defence and midfield, he still had moments of creativity and will be hoping to continue his good form in the Champions League against AC Milan at San Siro.

Trent's message to City's 'wonderkid'

The full-back has put allegiances aside, and sent a gift to Manchester City academy player Tyrse Noubissie, who is the son of Patrick Noubissie, a former player for Hibernian, Livingston, and Dundee.

Noubissie is currently out injured with a foot injury, but will hope to perform well this season for the Manchester City under-16 side and earn his first professional contract with the club. The Manchester club signed him for £1 million from Leicester last summer when he was just 14-years-old.

He went to Instagram to post a picture of the gifts the Liverpool star had sent him, a signed shirt and boots. Alexander-Arnold had signed the back of the shirt with the message, “To Tyrese, best wishes. Keep chasing the dream bro!”

Trent under Slot so far

Alexander-Arnold has been a key player so far this season for Arne Slot, who has been managing his minutes and brought him off for Conor Bradley in the opening three fixtures.

The scouser is currently out of contract with the Reds next summer, however Liverpool’s sporting director Richard Hughes has made it a priority to get his contract sorted, and halt discussion of a move to Real Madrid to link-up with close friend Jude Bellingham.

Liverpool fans are concerned by the lack of movement on the Scouser’s contract situation and are tensely waiting for an update which will see them keep hold of their star for season's to come.
