But he’s been in the headlines for a very different reason of late, so let’s take a look at what happened to him.

Who is Trent Alexander-Arnold?
Trent John Alexander-Arnold, born October 7, 1998 in Liverpool, joined his hometown club aged at the age of six and graduated from the Liverpool FC Academy.
Since then the youngster has risen through the ranks and into the senior squad.
Alexander-Arnold made his first-team debut in the League Cup against Tottenham Hotspur.
But his breakthrough came in 2017 after a serious injury to former Reds defender Nathaniel Clyne.
He has since won everything there is to win in English football, including the Premier League and Champions League.
Trent is also a longtime international player, having represented England at every youth level.
The wing-back played his first senior game for England in June 2018 in a friendly against Costa Rica at Elland road, which the Three Lions won 2-0, and has since gone on to become a regular in the international setup.
Alexander-Arnold is also a businessman, with his limited company recording more than £3.5million in assets since he launched it aged 18.
All Star Sports Ltd was set up in October 2016 to focus on the Liverpool the footballer’s image rights.
This talent for business is nothing new — as a kid he made a small fortune selling clothes worn by Liverpool and Everton players, saying the profits went to buying his parents a house.
He also signed an extension to his boot deal with Under Armour in 2019, reportedly worth £6.4m over four years.
Does Trent Alexander-Arnold have a girlfriend?
According to multiple reports, Trent’s girlfriend is British model and influencer Hannah Atkins.
Atkins does her best to keep her personal life under wraps, even opting for a private account on Instagram.
Alexander-Arnold is also yet to confirm that they are dating, choosing to focus on football when using social media.
However, the pair were pictured together in Ibiza last summer, enjoying a romantic getaway.
They were also spotted having lunch two years ago in Cheshire, following an injury to the Liverpool star that kept him out of Gareth the squad for the Euros.
What is Trent Alexander-Arnold’s net worth?
Reports of Alexander-Arnold’s net worth vary dramatically.
Numerous outlets including GiveMeSport have the wing-back’s net worth at around £2.5million, which seems low considering his reportedly £180,000 weekly wage, sponsorship agreements and business ventures.
However, SalarySport puts his net worth very specifically at £28,480,400, which seems like it might be more in the ballpark.
What happened to Trend Alexander-Arnold during Storm Babet?
Alexander-Arnold avoided death by inches on October 19 after a 40ft electricity pylon was uprooted in treacherous 70mph winds caused by Storm Babet.
The high-voltage power line, weighing around half a ton, smashed on to the car in front of the England ace’s £90,000 Range Rover.
Trent slammed on the brakes and swerved before hitting the BMW X5.
The shaken Liverpool star was then seen getting out and speaking to the other driver which was struck by the power line.
Both drivers miraculously escaped unharmed from the crash on a wet country lane near Knutsford, Cheshire.
Storm Babet has caused chaos around the country, leaving three people dead at the time of writing.
