Liverpool fans are growing tired of the constant speculation surrounding the future of Trent Alexander-Arnold but these rumours and headlines won’t go away as long as he doesn’t commit his future to the club or confirm his intentions of leaving on a free transfer.
Alexander-Arnold has remained quiet about his future as Liverpool continue to push hard to convince the defender to sign a new deal with the club in the coming months.
He is out of contract in the summer and will be free to discuss a pre-contract with clubs outside England from January onwards when Real Madrid are expected to make an official approach for him.
The European giants are under the impression that he won’t sign a new deal and many believe that the indications are that he will leave Liverpool for the Spanish capital next summer on a free transfer.
However, Real Madrid do not have a clear run at Alexander-Arnold if he declines to sign a new contract at Anfield as some more European giants have their eyes on him.

According to Spanish outlet Fichajes, Paris Saint-Germain have barged into the race to land Alexander-Arnold on a free transfer next summer.
They already had their eyes on Mohamed Salah and are now interested in getting their hands on his other Liverpool teammate who is in a contract wrangle on Merseyside.
PSG’s hierarchy are convinced about his quality and are prepared to go head-to-head with Real Madrid for his signature.
Real Madrid have already offered him a mega-deal but PSG have the means to not just match the offer from Los Blancos but gazump it with a more lucrative contract.
Can you name the club Liverpool signed these players from?
Alexander-Arnold has not made a final decision on his future and Liverpool have not entirely given up on the prospect of holding on to the player.
However, the race is heating up and if he is not tied down to a new deal soon, Real Madrid and PSG will be jostling for his attention from January onwards.
Real Madrid are banking on their prestige to land the defender but PSG are hopeful they can sell a better project to the player in the coming months.
