Liverpool head coach Arne Slot has admitted everyone at the club is disappointed that Trent Alexander-Arnold has decided to leave at the end of the season.

On Monday, the England international confirmed his decision not to extend his contract which expires in the summer - something which had been expected for a while amid long-term links to Real Madrid.

Slot has not spoken in person to the defender since the announcement - only via WhatsApp - but intends to talk to him on Friday to see how he is feeling about the fallout, which has received a mixed reception from fans and pundits.
