'He had everything': Trent Alexander-Arnold compares ex-Liverpool star to Cristiano Ronaldo

"He [Mane] is the one player I thought 'I'm glad I never have to play against him.' He was the perfect attacker, he had everything. Probably similar to [Cristiano] Ronaldo. He could jump, he was fast, he could finish, he was just a threat at all times," Trent Alexander-Arnold has told Gary Neville.

Wow. This is quite a special statement about the Senegalese.

While Sadio Mane has never played against Trent Alexander-Arnold in his career, he faced Liverpool four times as a Southampton player, scoring four goals – probably one of the reasons why the Reds eventually went for him.

Mane scored 120 goals and provided 42 assists in 269 appearances for Liverpool before leaving for Bayern Munich for €32m in 2022. He currently plays for Al Nassr.
