The England international has taken steps to increase his own security, after being "hounded" for over a year by a "sex-crazed stalker" – as per The Sun. The report states that Alexander-Arnold has had to change his mobile phone number and install CCTV and alarms in his house, and has also been sent X-rated letters, while the woman allegedly involved is also said to have been seen at Liverpool's training ground, his home, and at his favourite restaurants.
