There has been a lot of talk about Trent Alexander-Arnold leaving Liverpool this summer as a free agent. However, even if Alexander-Arnold leaves, another Liverpool superstar, Virgil van Dijk, insists that the club will "always be remembered for good things." Virgil van Dijk insists Trent Alexander-Arnold will "always be remembered for good things" at Liverpool even if he decides to leave at the end of his contract. Alexander-Arnold scored Liverpool's winning goal against Leicester on Sunday, bringing Arne Slot's team ever closer to winning their 20th league title. Even though Van Dijk and Mohamed Salah have both signed new two-year contracts at Anfield, there has been a lot of speculation that Alexander-Arnold will join Real Madrid as a free agent this summer. "Since I joined the club, he has been a fantastic player and there's a lot of good things that he will always be remembered for if he decides to leave," Van Dijk told reporters. Liverpool are on the verge of winning their 20th league title. "He has to deal with himself and the family about whatever might happen in the future for him. But at this point, he plays for Liverpool, and he is important to our team." Alexander-Arnold, who played under Jurgen Klopp and helped Liverpool win a league title, a UEFA Champions League, an FA Cup, and two League Cups, showed how important he is to Liverpool by scoring the winning goal against Leicester on Sunday. He celebrated wildly and took off his shirt in front of the Leicester fans.
Since then, much has been said about what that celebration meant, but Van Dijk said that the Liverpool players have no idea what his future holds. Van Dijk added, "At this point, we don't know what's going to happen as a group." Since he is already under a lot of pressure, it makes no sense for me to pressure him. Liverpool will be champions again if Arsenal lose to Crystal Palace on Wednesday. Arne Slot's Arsenal team can officially win the title if they beat Tottenham at Anfield on Sunday, whether they win or draw.
