Jamie Carragher and Jamie Redknapp locked horns over Trent Alexander-Arnold's contract situation at Liverpool. The right-back, who joined the Reds' academy when he was six, will be out of his current deal at the end of the season. The 26-year-old has been earmarked for a blockbuster departure to Real Madrid, with contract negotiations stagnating in recent weeks.

Indeed, Alexander-Arnold has remained somewhat coy on his Anfield future, only stating that details around his contract situation will not be revealed publicly. Carragher argued that the England star has an opportunity to stay in Merseyside and become an all-time great for Liverpool.

'If he stays at the club. He'll be remembered as one of the greatest players to ever play for the football club, and not far behind, Steven Gerrard,' the Liverpool legend said. Alexander-Arnold's contract is set to expire in 2025, amid lingering interest from Real Madrid.

'If he doesn't, he won't be remembered like that. Now, if he doesn't care about that, that's fine, but I'm only telling you what Liverpool supporters [think].
He continued to note that if Alexander-Arnold were to leave, Liverpool fans would be more understanding if he signed a contract at the club, so they receive some financial benefit from his departure, which would not be the case in the incidence of him leaving on a free transfer.
