Liverpool and England star Trent Alexander-Arnold is set to sign a lucrative multi-million pound boot deal with Under Armour.

The 20-year-old will earn an eye-watering £1.6million a year plus bonuses for the next four seasons from the deal, totalling to £6.4m over the contracted period.

The deal, which is expected to be completed imminently, represents a significant financial increase to Alexander-Arnold's previous one.

It is understood that it is also the highest paid endorsement deal of its kind for an English player bar Harry Kane - who exclusively wears Nike boots.

Alexander-Arnold will look to divert some of the money from the Under Armour deal towards purchasing land in Liverpool with a view to turning the area into facilities for the local community - and also has plans to build a football pitch.

The defender has played a pivotal role in Liverpool's title tilt this season and has received high praise for his recent performances.

However, the youngster was forced to withdraw from the England squad to face the Czech Republic and Montenegro on Wednesday night due a back problem.

The decision was taken for him to drop out of the squad after he missed England's penultimate training session ahead of the opening Euro 2020 qualifier against the Czechs at Wembley.
