The soccer star that many had no clue about never switched up from his roots and stayed true to his humble beginnings no matter the level of success. This soccer star is Trent Alexander-Arnold and he’s won and achieved some of the greatest trophies in soccer. As reported by CNN’s Darren Lewis and Ben Morse, he has triumphed in the Premier League, Champions League, FA Cup, League Cup, UEFA Super Cup, and FIFA Club World Cup. At 23 years old, he’s proven to be one of the most accomplished soccer players in this era. Most certainly one of the best at his position currently. His pure athleticism and playmaking abilities allow him to be versatile on the field and rare at his position. However, this isn’t about his abilities and his on-the-field production. Many his age would be spending their success on glamorous things and pointless purchases, however, he remains home with his parents and wants to keep learning “clean and healthy” life habits.
Trent Alexander-Arnold 3 Reasons for Staying Home
In fact, Alexander-Arnold told Darren Lewis about the reasons for him staying at home with his parents in an interview.
“I believe young players often hurry things,” he expressed to CNN’s Senior Sports Analyst Darren Lewis. “When you start earning money, young players often prioritize moving out and buying a new car, among other things.”
“And then the situation is just different. You’re living with your parents who keep things organized, ensuring cleanliness and tidiness, with no piled-up dishes. You return to a pleasant and neat environment at home.
“However, when you live on your own, you may delay breakfast and dinner, thinking, ‘I’ll do it later.’ And after training, you find yourself in an untidy and less pleasant environment. Personally, I’ve never felt the need to rush leaving home. I’ve always received the right guidance.
“I’ve simply always enjoyed having my family around me. They have grounded me and pushed me to reach the level I have achieved so far. Therefore, I don’t feel any urgency to make a decision.”
