Trent Alexander-Arnold has been named Liverpool’s Standard Chartered Player of the Month for December.
The right-back was a key figure throughout a memorable month in which the Reds strengthened their lead at the top of the Premier League, advanced to the last 16 of the Champions League and won the FIFA Club World Cup.
In eight appearances across all competitions, Alexander-Arnold registered four assists and one goal: the stunning low drive that capped a Man of the Match display in the 4-0 top-flight victory at second-placed Leicester City on Boxing Day.
The 21-year-old’s outstanding form saw him hold off competition from Roberto Firmino and Mohamed Salah, who finished second and third respectively, to earn the most votes in our Player of the Month fan poll.
Upon being presented with the trophy at Melwood, Alexander-Arnold told Liverpoolfc.com: “It’s a massive award for me coming from the fans, so it means a lot. It was a good month for the club as a whole; we obviously won a trophy and had some good results in the league.
“I’m really proud and hopefully we’ll be able to keep up the good form.”
