'Best midfielder in the world, HANDS DOWN': Trent Alexander-Arnold heaps praise on Manchester City playmaker Kevin De Bruyne as the Liverpool defender claims he has 'never seen someone create like he does'

Trent Alexander-Arnold has claimed that Man City playmaker Kevin De Bruyne is 'one of the best midfielders in Premier League history'.

The Belgian has been in scintillating form for his club this season and already provided nine assists from his opening 14 Premier League matches before the World Cup break.

Though he was unable to carry that form into the World Cup - as Belgium crashed out in the group stages - Liverpool's Alexander-Arnold couldn't help but shower the 31-year-old with praise.
