Youngster sends message with dazzling display as Anfield prepares for post-Trent era
In a match that could shape Liverpool’s right-back future, Conor Bradley showcased his brilliance with a sensational assist against Brighton—just as the Reds prepare to welcome Jeremie Frimpong from Bayer Leverkusen.
With Trent Alexander-Arnold set to leave this summer, Bradley started the match and made an emphatic statement. He danced past Simon Adingra with a nutmeg and delivered a pinpoint cutback to Harvey Elliott, who buried the opener at the Amex.
Fan Reactions Went Wild:
“Bradley already snatching Trent’s chain right before he leaves.”
“Trent left so he wouldn’t be phased out by Bradley.”
“Trent who? Bradley’s the real assist king.”
What This Means:
Jeremie Frimpong’s imminent arrival sets up a fierce competition for the starting role under Arne Slot.
With elite attacking skills and defensive composure, Bradley is staking a serious claim to the position.
The club’s tactical future may hinge on this rivalry, as Slot reshapes the squad for a new era.
Liverpool fans may have thought the void left by Trent would be hard to fill—but Bradley is proving he’s not
just ready—he’s rising.
