'The disgust on their faces!' - Liverpool fans spot 'cold' reception for Trent Alexander-Arnold after return to training amid talk of Real Madrid agreement
Liverpool fans believe Trent Alexander-Arnold received a "cold" reception on his return to training amid mounting speculation over a Real Madrid move.
On Monday, Liverpool players were spotted back at the AXA Training Centre ahead of returning to Premier League action this week. Days after Alexander-Arnold's move to Madrid was reportedly 'confirmed', although the deal hasn't been announced by either club, Reds fans claim his team-mates were a bit more standoffish than usual with the 26-year-old.

THE BIGGER PICTURE
Alexander-Arnold will go down as a Liverpool legend for what he has done at the club. But the fact that he seems set to turn down the Reds' contract offers and snub them for Madrid appears to have soured how he is viewed among some supporters.
WHAT NEXT?
Alexander-Arnold, who is out with an ankle injury, will hope Liverpool can beat Everton at Anfield in the Premier League on Wednesday as they inch closer to the title.
