Coming back to the brand that he wore as a youth, Trent Alexander-Arnold announced his return to adidas with a bang recently, slotting home the equaliser against Manchester City in the next generation Predator, and we caught up with the Liverpool man to find out more about the switch

.

It feels like something of a defining season for Trent Alexander-Arnold; as well as adapting to the new hybrid role created at the end of last season and increasing his creative influence over Liverpool’s latest title challenge, he’s now made the switch to adidas, closing his chapter with Under Armour to become one of the faces of the Predator franchise alongside fellow Englishman, Jude Bellingham. And Trent and the Predator already look like a match made in heaven… the control and accuracy features of the silo serving to perfectly accentuate the defender-come-midfielder’s existing attribute

And what a way to make your debut as the newest player to sign with adidas and as a Predator—bombing the ball into the lower corner from just inside the area to grab a point off a field that hasn’t yielded any points for any of the other visitors—too. Additionally, it was done in a unique boot that was made specifically for the player and the event, with the red highlights on the white base nodding perfectly to his club colors. And there’s that returning tongue, too, which has fans worldwide drooling over the next generation drop.

There’s a lot to unpack from the whole situation, and we snatched a bit of time from his busy schedule to talk all about his switch to adidas, and why he’s chosen the Predator…
