Jamie Carragher Praises Liverpool for Negotiating New Contract with Trent Alexander-Arnold

Former Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher has congratulated the Reds for tying Trent Alexander-Arnold down to a new 5-year deal until 2024.

The 20-year-old defender has established himself as the club's first choice right back since breaking into the starting eleven in 2016, making seventeen Premier League appearances this season.

Alexander-Arnold's outstanding levels of consistency over the past six months has helped Liverpool top the Premier League standings whilst he has also regularly featured for England and was part of their 2018 World Cup squad that reached the semi-finals of the competition.

By signing up the youth academy graduate, manager Jurgen Klopp has secured contracts for two of his best defenders in as many weeks with left-back Andrew Robertson also agreeing a new deal.
