Along with veterans Mohamed Salah and Virgil Van Dijk, England defender Trent Alexander-Arnold has less than a year left on his Liverpool contract.Real Madrid continue to show interest in one of the world’s best right-backs.
The Spanish capital club are looking to land the free transfer next summer, but Liverpool are not willing to let go of their homegrown player and future captain and are said to be in talks with the player to sign a new contract, although no information on progress has been made available so far.
Fabrizio Romano, an expert on the transfer market, referred to the contract situation surrounding the 25-year-old defender and assured that his first priority is to remain at Anfield. It seems that Liverpool’s future projects will be a determining factor in the decision.
“Trent Alexander-Arnold, since March we have mentioned the interest of Real Madrid,”
“Trent Alexander-Arnold for sure is a player they really like, but we can’t mention any negotiation or discussions.”
“Trent’s priority is Liverpool and he says he wants to win trophies. He keeps mentioning being very happy with Arne Slot and his contract negotiations being silent and not in the media, that was the message from Trent.”
“What does this mean? It means Trent will have negotiations and will keep discussing with Liverpool their project, the idea they have, and what they want at the club in the next years. It will also be about money, but the main focus is the project. The priority will be for Liverpool, Liverpool will have the chance to extend the contract of Trent.”
