Let’s wait and see: Arne Slot on Trent Alexander-Arnold’s injury

In his latest interview, Arne Slot spoke about Trent Alexander-Arnold’s injury, and also mentioned that the team would evaluate the player to determine the full degree of his injury.  “With Trent, he had to go out. We have to wait and see how he is doing,” Slot was quoted as saying.

He further added, “He (Trent) didn’t ask for it because he was tired, he asked because he felt something. That’s not a good sign but it’s always difficult so close after the game to tell you exactly what it is. Let’s wait and see. I would be surprised if he plays for the England national team this week but hopefully he can.”
