Liverpool star Trent Alexander-Arnold has named the teammate with whom he shares the closest bond at Anfield. The English defender said he was particularly close to Egyptian superstar Mohamed Salah, and opened up about their understanding on the pitch.
Alexander-Arnold and Salah have shared 23136 minutes on the pitch across 297 games, averaging 2.18 points per game and combining for 18 goals. Speaking in a recent interview with Stadium Astro, the defender said (via the Koptimes):
“I’d say Mo if I’m honest, I’d say me and Mo, how long we’ve known each other and how long we’ve played together. Our bond and connection especially on the pitch. We just understand the way we play we never moan at each other. We just respect each other’s style of play. Sometimes I overlap and he ignores me, but I know if I don’t pass to him he’s thinking the same thing.”
