The English right-back could add to his trophy collection, as he's also on the shortlist for Player of the Year honors.
Alexander-Arnold scored four goals and provided 13 assists - the latter of which was second only to Manchester City star Kevin De Bruyne - in 38 appearances to help Liverpool win the Premier League title.
The 21-year-old finished atop an eight-player shortlist that also included Jack Grealish, Mason Greenwood, Dean Henderson, Anthony Martial, Mason Mount, Christian Pulisic, and Marcus Rashford.
Players had to be 23 or younger to be eligible for the award.
