Though his club came up short for the Premier League title, Liverpool’s Trent Alexander-Arnold has enjoyed a season to remember, as he has now laid sole claim to the league’s assist record for a defender.
The 20-year-old full-back entered the contest on 11 assists and in a four-way tie for the record alongside team-mate Andy Robertson, Leighton Baines in 2010-11 and Andy Hinchcliffe in 1994-95.
It looked as if Alexander-Arnold might have secured the record early on, when Sadio Mane turned a cross of his into the net to give Liverpool a 1-0 advantage over visiting Wolves, but the ball was deflected before falling to the Senegal international and an assist was not given.
