Alarm bells ringing at Anfield after Liverpool star’s agent reveals Real Madrid desire

Real Madrid have been a thorn in Liverpool’s flesh for a few years. The Reds have lost Champions League finals to Los Blancos, and Trent Alexander-Arnold is set to move to the Santiago Bernabeu in the summer. Another Liverpool star is now potentially flirting with a move to the Spanish capital.

Liverpool are on course to win the Premier League title this season. However, Alexander-Arnold’s impending move to Real Madrid is one bitter pill to swallow for the club.

Mo Salah and Virgil van Dijk are set to sign new contracts with the club, but the impending departure of the Liverpool-born defender is something the fans are still digesting.

However, Liverpool fans should take note of another star’s agent openly flirting with the possibility of taking his client to the Santiago Bernabeu in the near future.

Can you name the team Liverpool signed these players from?

Real Madrid have noticed him – Reds star’s agent

Ryan Gravenberch has emerged as an elite defensive midfielder under Arne Slot this season, and his performances have made him one of the most important players in the team.

The Liverpool manager remodelled the Dutch star into a number 6 after the club failed to sign a defensive midfielder last summer, and he has not looked back.

However, it appears his agent, Jose Fortes, is now trying to capitalise on his agent’s good season by touting him around European football.

He claimed that Real Madrid have taken note of the player, but conceded it would take massive sums to convince Liverpool to sell him.

“When Ryan was 16, Barca called us. They wanted to sign him, but his father and I prioritised his development. At Ajax, he has been able to have an evolution that he possibly would not have had at Barca”, Fortes told Marca.

“He has the level for Real Madrid. We would love for him to play for them, but Liverpool would ask for a lot of money. I know they’ve noticed him, but now it’s impossible.”

Liverpool need to clamp down on such loose talk ahead of a historic 20th league title to ensure no rumours are swirling around their important players in the summer.
