Liverpool fans slam Trent Alexander-Arnold's brother after talented wonderkid rejects new deal to sign for Premier League rival

Trent Alexander-Arnold left Liverpool for Real Madrid last month but the 26-year-old's brother is still riling up Reds supporters.

Alexander-Arnold ran down his Liverpool contract and did not sign fresh terms with his boyhood club, signing off with a second Premier League title.

The manner of his exit left a sour taste in the mouth of fans who adored him, though Liverpool did still get a fee for Alexander-Arnold after Real paid £8.4 million to have him in their squad for the Club World Cup.

Alexander-Arnold has played in every game so far and registered his first assist as Xabi Alonso's men beat Juventus 1-0 to reach the quarter finals.

Why are Liverpool fans not happy with Trent Alexander-Arnold's brother?

But the player's brother and agent, Tyler, has irked Liverpool fans after reports emerged claiming one of their top talents is set to leave.

16-year-old Isaac Moran, who has captained both Liverpool and England at youth level, signed with the PLG agency of which Alexander-Arnold's brother is the director of, earlier this year.

The official account for the agency wrote: "Welcome to the PLG family, @isaacmoran_8. A talented midfielder for Liverpool and an England youth international, Isaac has captained both club and country at youth level. Looking forward to working with you, @isaacmoran_8."

According to Craig Hope of the Daily Mail, Moran rejected a scholar's contract with Liverpool and is now poised to sign with Newcastle in what is being described as a "coup" for the Carabao Cup winners.

The midfielder only turned 16 in March but has already featured for the Under 18's and is considered to be a top talent.

Reacting to the news on X, one Liverpool fan said: "Another Trent’s brother agency client gone!"

A second said: "Trent's brothers client. Not that surprised."

A third commented: "Happy to see him go, his agent is Trent's brother."

A final user added: "Another one of Trent’s brothers clients shown the door."

Former Liverpool stars Jordan Henderson and Nat Phillips are both clients of Alexander-Arnold's brother, while current left-back Andy Robertson is also represented by the agency.

With some sections of the Spanish media still not convinced by Alexander-Arnold's defensive abilities, the England international's next test with Los Blancos comes on Saturday when Real take on Borussia Dortmund in the last eight.

Jude Bellingham has been denied a dream showdown with brother Jobe after he picked up a yellow card which brought a one-game suspension for the clash.
