Liverpool star Trent Alexander-Arnold is stepping up his recovery efforts with the aim to get back as quickly as possible to boost their unprecedented Quadruple bid.

Jurgen Klopp told reporters before the 1-0 win that the 23-year-old could be out for ‘weeks’ due to the knock he picked up in training.
