Liverpool full-back already targeting next trophy win

Trent Alexander-Arnold wants to follow up his Champions League final success by winning the Nations League with England, according to Goal.

The 20-year-old full-back will feature for the Three Lions tonight against the Netherlands in a semi-final clash in Guimaraes.

And the Liverpool-born Red, who lifted the Champions League trophy less than a week ago, wants to repeat his club success on the international stage.

“Massive. It would be a dream come true,” said Alexander-Arnold, when asked what it would mean to win the Nations League Finals.

“You don’t expect to be in these situations and you never know if you ever will be again, so I think for now I’m trying to soak it up, give everything that I can and hopefully that will be achieved in the next few days.

“If you look at everyone in the squad, in one way or another, they’ve got something to be proud of this season. Whether it’s Manchester City, who have won the vast majority of trophies, or us winning the trophy the other night or the Tottenham players who’ve also had an incredible season and have pushed everyone so far.

“The whole squad has had a really good season altogether and I’m sure we’ll be looking to top it off over the next week and hopefully we’ll leave Portugal with another trophy.”

The defender also revealed that England’s Tottenham contingent were the first to congratulate him upon his arrival to training.

“The reception has been unbelievable,” he said. “They’re really happy for us and positive. For the Tottenham lads it must be tough for them, but they’ve come and congratulated us and were one of the first to do it.

“Even if it was the other way around you have to put what happened with our clubs to one side and focus on winning something for your country. We’re a team now, a few days ago we weren’t, but now we are so we need to recognise that and if we pull together for the same aim then we’ve got a great chance of reaching where we want.”
