There will probably be no selection gathering next week for Trent Alexander-Arnold, and while awaiting additional examinations, the vagueness about his presence against Real Madrid in 18 days remains total. Starting this Saturday during the Premier League meeting between Liverpool and Aston Villa, the England international had to leave his partners after only 25 minutes of play.
Muscularly affected, the 26-year-old full-back remained on the ground for several seconds before giving way to young Conor Bradley. Little information has leaked about the nature of his injury, but Liverpool are expected to communicate this evening. At the same time, Thomas Tuchel should certainly call up another player for England’s two matches against Greece and Ireland.
