John Aldridge has admitted he can understand why some Liverpool fans will “never forgive” Trent Alexander-Arnold for joining Real Madrid over the summer, but has called on supporters not to “take things too far” ahead of his return on Tuesday. “I expect the reaction overall for the returning Trent Alexander-Arnold to be mixed,” he told the ECHO.

He’s not a Liverpool player anymore – he plays for Real Madrid.

I just hope we show the good side of a hostile welcome for him and all the Real Madrid players.” Alexander-Arnold is unlikely to start on Tuesday (Image: Getty Images) Meanwhile, both Arne Slot and Ryan Gravenberch said they will welcome Alexander-Arnold back to Anfield, despite his decision to leave last summer. I have no clue how that’s going to be, but he gets a warm welcome from me, that’s for sure.” As hinted by Slot, Alexander-Arnold’s place in the team looks uncertain, given he has not played for Real since September 16.
