Liverpool defender Trent Alexander-Arnold has been linked with a potential move to Real Madrid as he enters the final six months of his contract at Anfield.
There are no clear signs of him renewing his deal, with reports suggesting he is determined to join the Spanish giants at the Santiago Bernabeu.
The England international has been one of Liverpool’s standout performers this season, playing a crucial role in their rise to the top of the Premier League and success in the Champions League group stage.
Fans are increasingly concerned about Alexander-Arnold’s long-term future, as well as the uncertain situations surrounding Mohamed Salah and Virgil van Dijk, both of whom also face contract issues.
Journalist Ben Jacobs has shared updates on Alexander-Arnold’s situation, revealing the right-back’s demands for a new contract at Liverpool.
“Keep an eye on whether talks involving Van Dijk and Alexander-Arnold are connected,” Jacobs explained. “If Trent is offered the captaincy in the long term, how does that impact Van Dijk?
At present, Liverpool appear more confident about Salah and Van Dijk staying, while Alexander-Arnold’s future remains uncertain.”
Should Liverpool meet Alexander-Arnold’s demands?
Offering him the captaincy and a three-year deal could be key to persuading him to remain at Anfield and reject Real Madrid’s advances. A player of Alexander-Arnold’s caliber is rare, and Liverpool may need to act swiftly to secure his future.
In addition to Alexander-Arnold, Luis Diaz has also been linked with a potential move to La Liga.
