Merseyside Police said in a statement: ‘We are currently dealing with reports of a road traffic collision in Liverpool city centre.

Liverpool dedicated an end-of-season summer party to Trent Alexander-Arnold ahead of his departure from Anfield.

Alexander-Arnold confirmed earlier this month that he was leaving the Premier League champions at the end of the 2024-25 campaign.

The England star has been at Anfield since he was six and made over 350 appearances for his boyhood club.

Alexander-Arnold helped Liverpool win two Premier League titles and the Champions League but his decision to leave the club has not gone down well with many fans.

The 26-year-old, who looks set to join Real Madrid on a free transfer, was booed by his own supporters during Liverpool’s 2-2 draw with Arsenal last weekend.

While much of the fanbase has reacted angrily to Alexander-Arnold’s decision, those inside Liverpool – including manager Arne Slot – have been more understanding.

The club appear to have held a ‘leaving party’ for Alexander-Arnold on Saturday ahead of the final day of the season next weekend.

Nevada Linton uploaded a video to TikTok channel which the caption: ‘R Trent’s leaving party! What a day and experience. Thank you. Go on to live your dreams.’

The event, which appears to have taken place on the grounds of Liverpool’s training complex in Kirby, was covered with branding which read: ‘Welcome to Summer of 66’ in reference to Alexander-Arnold’s shirt number.

Mohamed Salah, Virgil van Dijk, Andy Robertson, Darwin Nunez, Diogo Jota and Luiz Diaz were among the players pictured at the event.

Guests were able to enjoy food vendors and plenty of activities, including crazy golf and kids’ games.

Liverpool were desperately trying to tie down Alexander-Arnold, Salah and Van Dijk to new deals throughout their title-winning season.

Salah and Van Dijk have put pen to paper on contract extensions but Alexander-Arnold decided to leave amid interest from Real Madrid.

‘After 20 years at Liverpool Football Club, now is the time for me to confirm that I will be leaving at the end of the season,’ he said. ‘This is easily the hardest decision I’ve ever made in my life.

‘This club has been my whole life – my whole world – for 20 years. From the academy right through until now, the support and love I have felt from everyone inside and outside of the club will stay with me forever.

‘I will forever be in debt to you all. But, I have never known anything else and this decision is about experiencing a new challenge, taking myself out of my comfort zone and pushing myself both professionally and personally.’

A number of Liverpool players have criticised the decision from some fans to jeer Alexander-Arnold during the recent match against Arsenal.

Alexander-Arnold will hope for a different reception on Monday night when Liverpool face Brighton and in their Premier League finale against Crystal Palace at Anfield.

‘I think somehow the fans were being harsh with him,’ Salah told Sky Sports.

‘I think he didn’t deserve it at the time, he deserved the fans to treat him the best way possible because he gave it all to the fans.

‘We shouldn’t act this way with anyone who always appreciates the people, who came here even for six months.

‘Imagine someone who gives you his all for 20 years. It’s shouldn’t be like this. I hope that will change next game, against Brighton or in the last game of the season, because he deserves the farewell.’

Anfield captain Van Dijk added: ‘We want to win two more games and after the final whistle, including him [Alexander-Arnold], lift the trophy up and celebrate like we have never done before.

When asked whether Alexander-Arnold’s exit could overshadow the celebrations, Van Dijk said: ‘I don’t think so. It shouldn’t. There’s a lot more players that also deserve an amazing day.’

‘I was also booed by Liverpool fans – this is how Trent Alexander-Arnold will feel’

Liverpool FC v Arsenal FC - Premier League
Trent Alexander-Arnold was booed by Liverpool fans at Anfield (Picture: Getty)

Trent Alexander-Arnold was subjected to boos from Liverpool fans at Anfield during the Premier League clash against Arsenal.

Alexander-Arnold, who has been at Liverpool since the age of six, recently confirmed he would be leaving the club at the end of the season.

His decision comes following a lengthy contract dispute with Liverpool and amid interest from reigning European champions Real Madrid.

Anfield legend Jamie Carragher was among those to express his disappointment with Alexander-Arnold, who has made over 350 appearances for the Reds and helped his boyhood club win two Premier League titles and the Champions League.

Alexander-Arnold was named on Liverpool’s bench for Sunday’s clash with Arsenal and was booed as he warmed up on the side of the pitch.

Those jeers ratchet up when the 26-year-old came on in the 67th minute and almost every time he touched the ball.

Carragher disagreed with the boos but insisted he understood the frustration from the fans, while fellow Liverpool hero Steve Nicol described the scenes as ‘absolutely disgusting’.

Michael Owen knows better than most how it feels to be booed by Liverpool fans and said Alexander-Arnold will be ‘mortified’ and feel ‘absolutely sick’.

Liverpool supporters were unhappy with Owen’s decision to leave the club for Real Madrid in 2004 and made their feelings know when he returned to Anfield with subsequent clubs Newcastle United and Manchester United.

‘For his own people to boo him, it’s a big lump in your throat,’ ex-England striker Owen said on Premier League Productions after Liverpool’s draw with Arsenal.

‘I remember sitting in the player’s lounge after playing against Liverpool for Newcastle. Me and my family were in floods of tears because I’d just been booed by my own players.

‘I still struggle to comprehend it so I’m probably the closest person on the planet that knows exactly what it feels like to be in Trent’s shoes right now.

‘He will be mortified. Trent will leave now knowing that people booed him and it’s hard to get that out of your head, despite what’s happened over the last 20 years.

‘I forget a lot of the good times and just remember the booing. It makes you feel absolutely sick.’

Owen added: ‘I do question what Arne Slot will do in the remaining two games, especially the one at Anfield.

‘They were chanting about Conor Bradley and Steven Gerrard. It wasn’t the whole stadium. You will hear a minority of boos, it certainly wasn’t the whole stadium.

‘There are a lot of fans who want to thank and praise Trent for his contribution and rightly so.’

Andy Robertson, Alexander-Arnold’s team-mate of eight years, admitted it was ‘not nice’ to hear the boos.

‘But you can’t tell people how to feel,’ the Scottish defender said. ‘That’s how I feel about it and I’m not going to tell anyone else how to feel about it.

‘Disappointed to lose a good friend, he’s an amazing player and an amazing person. He has pushed me through and made me a better player.

‘His legacy will always be there, he’s done so much for this club. He will be missed for me as one of my best friends in the game.

Arne Slot reacts to Liverpool boss for Trent

‘We’ve done it all together. He’s took me to levels I never knew existed. It hasn’t been an easy one for Trent but he has made the decision.’

Liverpool manager Arne Slot, meanwhile, said when asked about the reception his right-back received: ‘Everybody can have their own opinion and you can express it in any way you want to.

‘I heard mixed opinions but the only opinion I have is I owe it to the players and fans to try to win a game of football.

‘And if Conor Bradley can’t go on because he is tired and I have Trent Alexander-Arnold on the bench, I will bring him in because we want to win this game of football.

‘And he was very close for us to win it because he had two or three passes… What makes him so special, for me.

‘It is quite simple: If I want to win, I bring him in and that’s what I did. For the fans, they are entitled to have their own opinion.’

Alexander-Arnold is expected to join La Liga giants Real Madrid after leaving Liverpool.

Madrid, who look set to miss out on a trophy this season, tried to sign Alexander-Arnold in January but were knocked back by Liverpool.
