Liverpool ace Trent Alexander-Arnold has named a former Manchester City prospect as his toughest opponent.

Brendan Barker, now 27, is currently a free agent after leaving Omonia in Cyprus.

On the We Are Liverpool Podcast, 25 year-old Alexander-Arnold said: "I would say Brandon Barker, played for [Manchester] City.

"I was 18, playing for the Under-21s, first ever time at Anfield, got beat 3-0. He scored two and got an assist. I came off at 60 [minutes].

"Still to this day, he's the opponent I think that just destroyed me, man. I've never had it like that before. At that point I'm thinking: 'This kid is going to be the best player in the world' because I'd never seen someone move so quickly and sharp and effectively, so I'd say Brandon Barker."
