Trent Alexander-Arnold has not yet provided any indication as to where he plans to play, at the Bernabeu or at Anfield. However, rumours in England continue to state that Arne Slot’s team is not yet concerned, even though all the signs now lead to his joining Real Madrid next summer.
Even though Liverpool possesses the highly regarded Conor Bradley as a backup, it would be a huge tragedy if Trent moved since it would undoubtedly affect how the Anfield supporters remember him. Although Michael Edwards and Richard Hughes still have plenty of time to negotiate on the 26-year-old’s contract, each day that goes by raises more questions about a possible agreement.
Liverpool and Real Madrid in agreement over Trent Alexander-Arnold
Alexander-Arnold has only ever played for Liverpool, and the Reds would be devastated to lose the 26-year-old, who is a boyhood supporter heading into his peak. Real Madrid, who are looking for a replacement for Dani Carvajal, could get the right-back from this team.
Time will tell what Alexander-Arnold’s ultimate decision will be, but there are a number of reasons why he might want to join Real Madrid or stay at Liverpool. Given that his contract expires in June, a pre-contract deal is imminent. Guess where he might go, and there are no prizes. Alexander-Arnold has been the target of Real Madrid since March, and there are no indications that they will stop.
According to Marca, Alexander-Arnold’s contract at Anfield will not be renewed, and both Liverpool and Real Madrid agree on this. He is expected to go next year, according to both of them; the only question is whether Madrid can persuade Liverpool to sell in January.
