'I could not have been more disappointed' - Jurgen Klopp 'turned off TV' after hearing Trent Alexander-Arnold boos as he tells disgruntled Liverpool fans treatment of Real Madrid-bound defender is 'wrong'

Alexander-Arnold's departure announcement did not go down well with Liverpool fans. The England international, who is close to a move to Real Madrid as a free agent this summer, was heavily booed when he came on as a substitute during the Merseyside club's 2-2 draw with Arsenal earlier this month.

Legendary former Reds boss Klopp has now weighed in on the fans' treatment of Alexander-Arnold. He claimed that the supporters were 'wrong' to jeer at a player who spent his entire career at the Merseyside club, revealing he turned off his TV when he heard the boos at Anfield.

Speaking at a fundraising event for the LFC Foundation, the German coach said: "I don't want to tell you what you have to think. I can tell you what you think is wrong. I don't tell you you should not be angry, you should not be disappointed, I tell you don't forget. This club doesn't forget. I watched the game when he came on and I heard the booing. I switched the telly [television] off. Honestly, I could not have been more disappointed at this moment."

The English champions will play their final game of the season this Sunday as they take on Crystal Palace at Anfield. Klopp will be in attendance for the trophy lift.
