The Liverpool full-back has excelled for his boyhood club but revealed that he wants to be remembered as one of the game's top players when he retires.

Asked what his ambitions are now, Alexander-Arnold told Men in Blazers: "Of course, winning more trophies. But on a personal level it is building a legacy. That is something that is important.

"Just being spoken about in the highest regard, especially after you've finished [playing]. In 10 or 15 years, if I'm spoken about as one of the best right backs or the best right back then that's what I'm playing for now and using it as motivation."

The England international's passing ability is amongst the finest in the game and he says it is a skill that he has always admired.

Alexander-Arnold said: "I was fortunate enough to grow up in an era where the passers of the ball were incredible.

"I was able to grow up watching [Steven] Gerrard, [Xavi] Alonso, [David] Beckham, [Andrea] Pirlo, and the Spanish legends as well. I was very fortunate to grow up witnessing that, so I think from a young age I always admired it.

"I thought it was a real art and a skill. Everything that goes into it - the weight of pass, the technique that you use, the speed of your pass. Every pass should be delivered as a message without having to talk. I think the person who receives the ball should know from how the ball is played what the situation is - whether you can turn, whether you have to play it back, whether it is in space or not, they should understand what your thinking was through the pass."
