Mini bio
How it started.
Born in Liverpool, Trent joined his hometown club’s academy at six. He began as a midfielder before moving to right-back, studying the position with academy coaches. His senior competitive debut came in October 2016.
The breakthrough.
By the following season he had established himself at right-back. His passing and crossing became central to Liverpool’s attack. In 2019, his quick corner for Divock Origi helped complete the Champions League semi-final comeback against Barcelona, before Liverpool won the final.
Titles and a new chapter.
He helped Liverpool win the Premier League in 2019–20 and 2024–25 and became vice-captain in 2023. He left with 354 appearances and 23 goals, joining Real Madrid in 2025. England’s senior team first called on him in 2018.
Life beyond the academy.
In 2023 he launched The After Academy. Working with the PFA, the initiative supports former academy footballers with education, training and routes into employment after their playing plans change.
