The Trent Alexander-Arnold contract situation has already witnessed several twists and turns. However, Liverpool still do not have any clarity on whether the defender will be signing a new deal in the coming months.
Liverpool fans are growing increasingly wary about the speculation surrounding the future of Alexander-Arnold, a player who has been one of the greatest success stories of the club’s academy.
Real Madrid are keen to take him to Spain next summer on a free transfer and are said to have offered him a mega-deal to move to the Spanish capital.
Alexander-Arnold has also talked about his ambition of winning the Ballon d’Or, which some have taken as a signal that the defender will be joining Los Blancos at the end of the season.
He has rejected multiple offers of a new deal but Liverpool are still trying hard to convince him that his future lies on Merseyside with his boyhood club.
Liverpool receive some hope on the Trent Alexander-Arnold contract situation
Real Madrid are pushing hard to sign the right-back and he is more or less their number one target next summer.
The club are under the impression that he won’t be signing a new deal and have grown increasingly confident of getting a deal done.
There has been contact between the defender’s agent and Real Madrid but the club will make a legal approach for him in Janaury.
However, they are still not entirely sure of signing him and according to AS, Tottenham’s Pedro Porro has been identified as the alternative.
Can you name the club Liverpool signed these players from?
Alexander-Arnold is still the player they want and efforts are underway in the background to make sure they take him to the Santiago Bernabeu.
They are keeping tabs on Porro as well but their interest in him is still informal and a move will only be made if they feel Alexander-Arnold won’t be joining them.
This is some good news for Liverpool that Real Madrid are not entirely sure of signing Alexander-Arnold, which indicates that the player has not completely made up his mind.
Liverpool hope that despite the lure and glamour of Real Madrid, the defender will eventually decide to stay put with his boyhood club.
