Trent Alexander-Arnold has agreed to a multi-year contract worth £26 million with adidas, following in the footsteps of players like Jude Bellingham of Real Madrid and England.
The vice captain of Liverpool, who scored against Manchester City on Saturday, was seen sporting some vintage-looking, never-before-released adidas Predator footwear. Alexander-Arnold has been with Under Armour since he made his breakthrough as a youth, but this agreement comes to an end.
The American company attempted to retain Alexander-Arnold as one of their athletes, having him serve as the face of their soccer campaigns worldwide. However, the 25-year-old was lured in by adidas’s attractive offer, which included a prominent role as one of their brand’s faces.
Alexander-Arnold is viewed as one of the greatest football players by German manufacturers adidas, and it is expected that he will eventually unseat Virgil van Dijk as Liverpool’s captain. He will be part of a significant marketing campaign.Since joining the academy at the age of six, Alexander-Arnold has worn Predators. The commercial arrangement is expected to bring in a cool €30 million over the course of the multi-year contract, and the England player will receive his own signature collection from adidas that may generate further royalties.

Alexander-Arnold revealed in a promotional film that he grew up wearing Adidas boots and was motivated by Liverpool’s amazing victory over AC Milan on penalties in the Champions League final in 2005.
Predator boots were worn by Steven Gerrard, a pivotal player in Liverpool’s amazing comeback against Milan. “I made sure I had those boots on whenever I had the ball at my feet,” he stated. What truly motivated me at the time was Istanbul. The players, the game, and the boots. My purse never held those footwear. I suppose I’ve always known I’ll return eventually.
