RevealedWhy Fernando Torres was repping a Trent Alexander-Arnold Liverpool shirt

The Spaniard was recorded repping the No.66 jersey during a boxing workout, with supporters loving the connection between Reds icons from different eras.

Offering an explanation, Torres told Liverpoolfc.com: "I think Trent is a special player for the supporters, also for me as a former player. It's really nice to see young players develop the way they are doing and become one of the main players in the first team.

"I'm sure Liverpool fans love him because he's one of them and he's playing on the field at the level he's doing. It's similar to what I did in Atletico – from the stands to the pitch and I always felt I was special for the fans.

"I'm sure Trent is feeling exactly the same. He's a Scouser playing for the first team and being important, one of the main players. For all of us, he's a special guy. I managed to get his shirt and I like to put it on to do some training.

"I always think it would be so nice to be able to play with him and receive these kind of crosses he does. It would be a pleasure to play in the same team as Trent and be ready to head those crosses. I think it could be a good connection."
