Speculation is growing around Trent Alexander-Arnold’s future with Liverpool, as the 25-year-old England international has yet to extend his contract, which expires at the end of the current season.
If no new deal is signed, Alexander-Arnold will be free to negotiate with other clubs in January and could leave on a free transfer next summer.
Real Madrid is reportedly confident in securing his signature, particularly following Jude Bellingham’s move to the Bernabeu.
According to *The Independent*, Alexander-Arnold is on Madrid’s radar, alongside Manchester City’s Rodri and Arsenal’s William Saliba.
Madrid’s recent focus on acquiring young talent rather than established stars has allowed them to save money while redeveloping the Santiago Bernabeu, all while remaining competitive.
The decision for Alexander-Arnold is whether to join Real Madrid and contribute to their ongoing success or stay at Liverpool and help lead them back to the top of European football. With Real Madrid further along in their development, this could sway his decision.
