Trent Alexander-Arnold has spent his entire professional career at Liverpool, making his debut under Jurgen Klopp back in 2016. Despite his crucial role in Arne Slot’s side, the Merseyside club has yet to offer the talented right-back a contract extension, with his current deal nearing its end this season.
This situation has fueled growing speculation regarding Alexander-Arnold’s future, especially as Real Madrid has expressed keen interest in securing his services on a free transfer next summer.
Reports from Relevo earlier this month confirmed that initial contact had already been made between the La Liga giants and Alexander-Arnold’s representatives.
More recently, Relevo updated the story, revealing that Real Madrid continues to work discreetly to bring the 26-year-old to Spain next summer. Though they recognize that signing him in the January window to fill in for the injured Dani Carvajal would be challenging, the club hasn’t entirely ruled it out.
Liverpool striving for a new deal with Alexander-Arnold
Real Madrid’s interest is sure to cause concern among Liverpool fans, particularly given the stature of the Spanish club and the fact that Alexander-Arnold’s close friend, Jude Bellingham, is already a key player for the La Liga side. However, Liverpool is determined not to lose one of their academy’s brightest stars.
According to a report from The Athletic’s James Pearce in early October, discussions between Liverpool and Alexander-Arnold’s camp remain active as both sides work towards reaching an agreement.
Ultimately, the right-back’s future rests in his hands, and regardless of the outcome, Alexander-Arnold is poised for success, as his potential opportunities are both significant and exciting.
