Liverpool give Trent Alexander Arnold an important task while in Qatar

After the Premier League football teams broke ranks after seeing action this past weekend, the England squad has now called up its players to face the World Cup in Qatar, with Trent Alexander-Arnold now wearing the Three Lions' jersey with the important mission of leaving with the title in his hands on 18 December, with a special task for Liverpool during his stay that he must try to execute as the days go by.

Undoubtedly the main objective for the young Reds defender is that he returns to Merseyside with the world champion tag, but Liverpool are also awaiting news on their relationship with Borussia Dortmund gem Jude Bellingham, as the fact that the Anfield higher-ups know a little about his situation could put them in a strong position to make a definitive offer that he would not refuse.

The Liverpool defender could lean heavily on team-mate Jordan Henderson to sow the seeds of doubt in the Bundesliga midfielder, as the fact that Bellingham has a concrete reference of what Liverpool is all about would be of great help in eradicating at least that lack of knowledge he had of the Merseyside institution and its environment.

While the England team's stay in the World Cup depends a lot on what they do or don't do, the reality is that Trent Alexander-Arnold will have very little opportunity to talk to his team-mate about it, making that task even more difficult as the group progresses through the rounds and the title race gets closer and closer, having to give up for a while and opt for a firm focus on their opponents in turn.

TAA must convince Bellingham to sign for Liverpool

The eyes of Europe's top teams will be on the Borussia Dortmund player, closely scrutinising his performance in every game he sees action. Should he put in a spectacular display and be a key player in securing an important place for his national team, the German club will most likely put his price tag above the initial $100m that was mentioned, with Liverpool having to open their chequebook and hope that their defender has been able to influence his teammate on his fate.
