Liverpool defender Trent Alexander-Arnold bags Guinness World Record with his outstanding assist (photos)

The 21-year-old defender racked up 12 assists during the 2018/19 season, to achieve the record for the most English Premier League assists by a defender in a single season.

Alexander-Arnold actually achieved 16 assists in all competitions, with 12 of these coming in Premier League matches.

“It’s an honour. I’ve always wanted to go forward and help the team to create as many chances as possible. It’s obviously down to the lads to put the ball into the back of the net, because football is a team game and without them this record wouldn’t be possible.

“It’s an unbelievably proud moment for me and my family, and something I hope will stand for a few years,” Trent Alexander-Arnold
