Liverpool head coach Arne Slot has said he is "disappointed" that defender Trent Alexander-Arnold has decided to leave the club this summer but has backed the Reds to adapt following his departure.

Arne Slot said he was disappointed with the news that Trent Alexander-Arnold is set to leave Liverpool but insisted the club will recover from the setback. The Liverpool head coach was speaking on Friday - ahead of this weekend's Premier League encounter against Arsenal - for the first time since Alexander-Arnold confirmed his decision to leave Liverpool.

Liverpool boss Arne Slot will be up before the media at about 09:00 BST this morning when we will hear from the Dutchman for the first time since Trent Alexander-Arnold announced he would be leaving the Reds.
