‘He’s no scouser’ – Paddy Pimblett eviscerates ‘lizard’ Trent Alexander-Arnold over Liverpool exit

Add Paddy Pimblett to the long line of Liverpool supporters who can’t wait to see the back of Trent Alexander-Arnold.

Alexander-Arnold is set to depart the club he joined as a six-year-old in 2004 and will move to Real Madrid at the end of the season on a free transfer.

Alexander-Arnold won’t be in a Liverpool shirt much more

The fact that Alexander-Arnold will leave Anfield for nothing is what has rankled Reds fans most, given a player of his calibre could have fetched the club a massive transfer fee.

Instead, Liverpool will not see a single penny despite having Alexander-Arnold on the club’s books for two decades.

Some Liverpool supporters have demanded that head coach Arne Slot leave Alexander-Arnold on the bench for the remainder of the season, while the more frustrated among the Reds faithful even went as far as burning shirts with the defender’s name on the back.

Pimblett, a Liverpool follower, has now added his voice to the angst in an interview with TNT Sports ahead of his fight against Michael Chandler at UFC 314 on Sunday.

“I don’t even want to talk about it,” Pimblett said.

“He’s ratted Liverpool. He’s done us dirty.

“He always said he wants to be the next Gerrard, wants to captain the club and then he’s left on a free.

“He’s no scouser.”

In a separate interview with Sky Sports, Pimblett described Alexander-Arnold as a ‘lizard’.

“Forgot where he’s came from,” Pimblett said.

“The money he’s earning, the money’s he’s been offered. Just putting a smile on everyone’s face in the city.

Alexander-Arnold’s departure will end a 20-year association with the club

Salah is staying at Liverpool beyond the summer

Alexander-Arnold is poised to join Real Madrid on a five-year deal which talkSPORT understands will net him over £220,000-per-week.

The 26-year-old appears to be the only member of Liverpool’s high-profile trio whose contracts were due to expire at the end of the season, with Mohamed Salah signing his new deal on Friday morning, and talkSPORT understands Virgil van Dijk is due to follow.

Alexander-Arnold’s looming switch comes after he told Sky Sports in September he hoped to build a lasting legacy at Anfield.
