Recently, Alexander-Arnold was asked by which of Liverpool's youngsters from Bradley, Ben Doak, Stefan Bajcetic and Harvey Elliot could go on to be a future star for the club. And it was Bradley whom Alexander-Arnold selected from the quartet.

Liverpool.com says: "Liverpool might want to give Conor Bradley some more minutes this term if they want to figure out if he could be Alexander-Arnold's long-term successor.

They must tie the England international down to a new deal, which would allow Bradley to continue to serve as his understudy."
