Trent Alexander-Arnold's celebration for Liverpool has sparked speculation about his future(Image: Liverpool FC via Getty Images)

Trent Alexander-Arnold has been accused of potentially costing Liverpool an £80million payday.

Liverpool will receive nothing if Alexander-Arnold does leave, despite being, for many, worth a high eight-figure sum on the open market.

But after he netted the decisive goal on his 350th outing for the Reds at the weekend, speculation has swirled that he could in fact stay put.



His exuberant celebration, which saw him rip off his shirt, slide on his knees, and jubilantly face the away fans, has got people talking about a potential U-turn.

Former Manchester United and Wrexham goalkeeper Ben Foster has suggested that Alexander-Arnold's actions hint at a possible new deal with Liverpool after Virgil van Dijk and Mohamed Salah recently penned new contracts.

Questioning what Alexander-Arnold's celebration could mean on his 'Fozcast' podcast, Foster said: "I'm genuinely not sure right now.

If you were to sign a new deal today or tomorrow, you're in the history books of that club forever."

Despite his roots in the city, Alexander-Arnold has faced backlash from some sections of the Liverpool faithful after reports of a potential switch to Los Blancos became public.

I think he is getting all carried away with Real Madrid and [thinking] the grass is greener but I don't think the grass is greener."

In the event that Alexander-Arnold makes the move away from Anfield, young prospect Conor Bradley is tipped to take over the right-back slot.

At just 21, Bradley has already shown promise in his performances for Liverpool this term, racking up 15 appearances in the Premier League and featuring five times in the Champions League.

Foster has warned that replacing Alexander-Arnold is no mean feat, hinting that any successor might initially struggle to match his exceptional performances.

He said: "The problem they've got is if Trent does go, Connor Bradley will probably be there at right wing-back.
