Former Liverpool star Ryan Babel has advised the Reds not to stand in the way of Trent Alexander-Arnold if he wants to leave Anfield this summer.
Alexander-Arnold has played 351 games and scored 23 goals since breaking into the Liverpool first team as a teenager.
However, as his contract slowly runs down, the 26-year-old is set to leave at the end of the season as La Liga giants Madrid seek to snap him up.
This impending move has caused much controversy despite all that the defender has given to the club since bursting through the academy.

Reacting to the development, the former Dutch international, in a chat with Beste Online Casino, advised the Reds to allow Alexander-Arnold to leave in peace.
“It’s his career, and the career is only short. And I remember growing up as a boy in Amsterdam like, “Yes, Ajax was my dream club,” but I also had other clubs I would dream of playing for one day as a young kid. It’s Trent’s career, and we shouldn’t be so entitled to decide for him what’s best.
“I think he gave everything for his club. He represented his club very well, and now he has the ambition to try and do it for a different club. I wish him luck; that’s his decision.”
