Dani Alves recently has praised Trent-Alexander Arnold for his world-class skills and talent. He admitted that the Englishman is one of the best right-backs in the world right now.

Alves himself is one of the greatest defenders to have ever graced the football pitch.

“I admire Trent Alexander-Arnold very much,” Alves told FourFourTwo. “He’s a fantastic footballer – this guy has got world-class skills.

“I also like to watch Reece James and Achraf Hakimi.

“They mix strength with technique and are also great players.

“The three of them obviously have different characteristics and styles, but they all know how to do the job.”
