Liverpool supporters have noticed a harsh move by the club involving Trent Alexander-Arnold merchandise on their official website.
With his departure from his boyhood club confirmed at the end of the season, Alexander-Arnold now has only two games left in a Liverpool shirt—first away at Brighton’s Amex Stadium, followed by a home clash with FA Cup champions Crystal Palace at Anfield.
Before the Brighton fixture, many fans browsing the club store came across a particularly striking update regarding the defender’s merchandise.
As highlighted by numerous fans online, the club has drastically slashed the price of a player scarf featuring Alexander-Arnold’s image, name, and signature. Normally priced at £16, the scarf is now available for just £5—a nearly 70% markdown.
This move may be influenced by the significant backlash the 26-year-old has faced from some fans following news of his exit. This tension was on display when he was booed during a recent appearance in the 2-2 draw against Arsenal at Anfield.
Despite the discount, many supporters believe it won’t entice buyers. Some fans remarked online that they wouldn’t even take the scarf for free.
One fan commented, “£11 off and it’s still a rip-off.” Another joked, “An overpriced toilet paper.” A third added, “Just stop selling it—I wouldn’t even accept it as a gift.”
Someone else pointed out: “They’re just trying to clear out unsold stock. But it’s too late—no one’s buying it now.”
Although there’s been no official confirmation, widespread reports suggest Alexander-Arnold is set to join Real Madrid, where he could link up with fellow England international Jude Bellingham. With Carlo Ancelotti set to leave the club, it’s expected Liverpool legend Xabi Alonso will take over as manager at the Bernabéu.
