Victim of a car accident on Friday, the native of Liverpool, author of an assist in seven matches in all competitions since the start of the season, is today considered a true miracle by the British tabloids. “He avoided death by a few centimeters”indicates for its part The Sun. On the wet road of Knutsford, in Cheshire, and aboard his Range Rover, the Reds player, in fact, saw a high voltage pylon crash a few centimeters from his vehicle…
A shocking accident, miraculous TAA!
Specifically, the person concerned had to swerve to avoid the high-voltage power unit and collided with a BMW X5… The power line, which weighs half a ton, ultimately crashed into the other vehicle… Fortunately for the various protagonists, Alexander-Arnold and the driver of the BMW ultimately escaped unscathed. For his part, the Daily Mail also states that it is a true miracle.
Later on Friday morning, police were called to the scene and the power supply through the huge pylon was cut off. For his part, Alexander-Arnold, who ultimately only suffered material damage with a totally broken Range Rover, then took part in collective training with Liverpool before the Merseyside derby this Saturday against Everton at Anfield, where he should start.
