Liverpool have had a dominant right flank over the years due to the outstanding partnership between Mohammed Salah and Trent Alexander-Arnold.
The two stars have developed an incredible understanding, playing alongside each other for several seasons. Their link-up play, chemistry, and mutual respect have made them one of the most formidable duos in football.
Over the years, Alexander-Arnold and Salah have played 314 matches together across all competitions, combining for 19 joint goal contributions. Their ability to read each other’s movements has been a crucial aspect of Liverpool’s attacking play.

“I say me and Mo”- Trent
In an interview with Stadium Astro (via @DaveOCKOP), the English right-back shared details about his relationship with the Egyptian forward:
“I’d say Mo if I’m honest. Yeah, I say me and Mo. I think just like how long we’ve known each other and how long we’ve played together like our bond and connection especially on the pitch we just understand the way we play.
You’ll see we never ever if you watch like all even though we could do many times, we never never moan at each other. We just respect each other’s style of play.”
Trent Alexander-Arnold on who has the biggest bromance with him:

He added.
“Like that times I’ll overlap and he’ll just completely ignore me and just do a shot and in my mind I’m thinking he should just pass to me but I know the next time if I get the ball and I don’t pass to him he’s probably thinking the same thing but we just respect the way each other play and I think that’s why potentially the right side is one of the best ever really if I’m honest.”
Trent’s legacy and future
Despite their success together, it seems this incredible partnership could soon come to an end. Both Trent Alexander-Arnold’s and Salah’s contracts are set to expire in the summer.
While Salah’s next move remains uncertain, the English full-back is set to complete a free transfer to Spain to join Real Madrid.
This move will bring an end to an unforgettable chapter in Liverpool’s history. Having risen through the club’s academy, Alexander-Arnold has become one of the most decorated right-backs in the club’s modern era.
He has made 349 appearances, scoring 22 goals and assisting more than 80 times. His exceptional vision, pinpoint crosses, and playmaking ability have made him a vital figure in Liverpool’s dominance under Jürgen Klopp.
His greatest achievements with Liverpool include playing a crucial role in their 2018-19 UEFA Champions League triumph, where his quick-thinking corner assist against Barcelona became one of the most iconic moments in football history.
He was also instrumental in the 2019-20 Premier League victory, helping Liverpool secure their first league title in 30 years. He has won 5 more trophies with Liverpool, and it is safe to say that he has won everything with his boyhood club.
His decision to join Real Madrid marks the beginning of a new challenge in his career. At the Santiago Bernabéu, he will look to add to his legacy, playing alongside some of the biggest names in world football.
