Supporter Backs Liverpool Defender's Transfer to Real Madrid
Bag a Bonus It appears that Liverpool's very own Trent Alexander-Arnold, who nabbed the "Golden Ball" in 2001, Michael Owen, is backing Alexander-Arnold's decision to ditch Liverpool for the illustrious Real Madrid. This summer, the 26-year-old defender will set sail for the Spanish giants as a free agent, causing a storm among "Scousers" fans who've taken to burning shirts with his surname and dishing out the insults.
Bringing back memories of his own 2006 transfer saga, Michael Owen, once a leading player at Liverpool, was traded to Real Madrid for 12 million euros. Much like Alexander-Arnold, Owen faced criticism from supporters.

Alexander-Arnold's entire career has been intertwined with Liverpool, joining their youth academy since 2004. His impressive tenure has yielded him a whopping 9 trophies, including two Premier League titles and the Champions League.
