Arne Slot has said he is undecided on whether to play Trent Alexander-Arnold in Liverpool’s final fixture of the season against Crystal Palace.
Alexander-Arnold will leave Liverpool in the summer when his contract expires. The right-back is expected to join Real Madrid on a free transfer and his decision has divided the Liverpool fanbase.
The 26-year-old was booed during Liverpool’s most recent home fixture against Arsenal, before remaining an unused substitute at Brighton on Monday night.
Liverpool will be presented with the Premier League trophy after their game against Crystal Palace on Sunday and Slot has said it is an occasion ‘that everyone should enjoy’.
He admitted he is unsure whether Alexander-Arnold will play, suggesting the defender may have already made his last appearance for Liverpool.
“I have not decided on that one yet,” he said at his pre-match press conference.
“This should be the day that everyone should enjoy. It has been 35 years that Liverpool fans have been waiting for this moment.
“I am hoping we can add a moment like Tottenham when we won the league. Everyone that is in the stadium deserves to be there, which includes Trent, who has been part of a successful season and successful years at this club.
“I have a lot of trust that our fans will deliver like against Tottenham again.”
