The 19-year-old defender has underlined his precocious talent with a series of eye-catching performances for Liverpool
Alexander-Arnold joined Liverpool at the age of six and has always been considered a potential star. As a result, there were a series of incentives built into the five-year deal that he signed last July.
Sensibly, appearance-related clauses were linked to pay rises and it is understood that the latest one was reached when he played his 30th senior game in the 2-0 victory over Southampton in February. He is now on about £40,000 a week.
Alexander-Arnold's magnificent displays in nullifying the threat of Manchester City’s Leroy Sané in the Champions League quarter-final success brought widespread acclaim. In any case Liverpool had already anticipated the player making sizeable strides and so factored in a number of thresholds which will reward continued progress.
