The defender of Liverpool, Trent Alexander-Arnold, has repeated his wish to be the first right-back to win the balloon d’Or, with his ultimate ambition in football, who can be remembered as the biggest player who was ever seen on the field.
But when he weighed in his career what he wants to achieve in his career, the English international gave a potential reference to his immediate future.
Alexander-Arnold is quickly interested in Real Madrid towards the end of his Liverpool contract. The latest reports on the situation suggest that a contract with the Spanish Giants is already compatible, whereby his red red childhood does not persuade him to stay in Anfield.
Presented with different career goals in a video with Sky SportAlexander-Arnold quickly removed the card from the dispute over the captain of Liverpool.
His argument was that the captain is not something that he does not decide. For the same reason, he has at least as much control over as he does in the balloon d’Or stakes.
“I would want to be Liverpool Captain, but it’s not my decision, so it can’t really be in it,” he said.
“I think I can” 🏆 🏆

Asked to choose between the win of a trophy with England or to be presented with the balloon d’Or, Alexander-Arnold decided for the first time that he expressed his wish for the most prestigious individual price of world football.
“That would be immense to win a world championship with England. That would change the game. [But]I would say you win a balloon d’Or. I think I can. I want to be the first full -back to ever do it, ”he said.
“Some people may call me deceived, but I think I can.
“I just want the inheritance to be the greatest right -back who has ever played football when I’m honest. I know that there were many out there, but I will reach for the stars.”
The Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher previously commented on the fact that Alexander-Arnold’s obsession with the Ballon d’Or is what he pushed in the direction of Real Madrid and believed that he was a better chance than if he stayed in Angeld.
Alexander-Arnold continued that trophies that he could win in Liverpool and Madrid are not as important for him as his individual potential and a permanent heritage.
“In the morning after retirement, you have to look in the mirror and say that I have given everything I have. It doesn’t matter how many trophies or medals you have. It is important what you gave to the game and whether you achieve your full potential,” he said.
“I have heard that ‘potential’ has been thrown around with my name since I was six. ‘He has the potential to be a player of the first team, to play for England, to be a captain … potential, potential, potential’.
