Arne Slot is set to arrive as Liverpool manager at the start of June and it’s safe to say he’ll be taking on a big job, something Gary Lineker has tried to help with.

Speaking on ‘The Rest is Football’, the Match of the Day host said: “I hope the new manager when he comes in, plays Trent in midfield at Liverpool.

“I think that’s his position, I really do, I always have, I’d love to see him play there regularly.”

It’s not the first time it’s been suggested that the Scouser should become a midfielder and time will tell whether the Dutchman agrees with this call.

With the Euros likely being a chance for the world to see Trent Alexander-Arnold in the middle of the pitch for England, many will be watching to see how well he performs.
