Liverpool wonderkid drops Arsenal transfer hint

Almost every academy player at Liverpool has the same dream - follow Trent Alexander-Arnold's footsteps.

The English right-back managed to impress Jurgen Klopp at a young age, earning a call-up into the first team, and he hasn't looked back ever since.

Going from strength to strength after each new experience, the Reds now have an intangible asset on their hands, which makes the rumours of his impending departure to Real Madrid all the more painful.

However, the foundations have been built for Liverpool to unearth another hidden gem from within their own ranks, and as the club attempts to rebuild the team this summer, opportunities are opening up.

But not everyone will be intending to make the use of Trent's pathway - some will still continue to dream of moves elsewhere, and that is the exact impression fans received from Joshua Abe this week.

Homegrown talent has his eyes glued to Arsenal

While most people connected to the club are focused on our own success and the impending likelihood that Liverpool will secure the Premier League title in the next few weeks, others were looking elsewhere.

15-year-old Abe is a crucial asset to the club's under-15 team, slowly progressing through the different age ranges of Liverpool's academy.

The Englishman has already made an impression on the national team, earning his maiden call-up to the England under-15 team earlier this season and he is firmly attracting interest away from the club after a number of impressive performances.

One potential move was unveiled earlier this week, when Abe took to his Instagram story where he shared a post about Arsenal winning at the Bernabeu and subsequently securing a spot in the semi-finals of the Champions League.

Of course, it is incredibly likely that Abe is merely fond of Arsenal and has no intentions of leaving Liverpool any time soon.

However, the post is certainly sufficient to warrant being considered as a transfer hint, and in a season where Liverpool have been fighting against Arsenal for the Premier League title, the post is concerning.

Until any formal link away from the club is published, this Instagram story is best being noted and forgotten about, but the Gunners may look into possibly signing Abe if his career stays on the impressive trajectory it has started off on.
