“Liverpool’s defender Alexander-Arnold wants to move to Real Madrid. Negotiations are moving forward between the parties. A final agreement has not been reached at this time.”
Trent Alexander-Arnold may join Real Madrid. His Liverpool contract ends on June 30. He wants to move to the Spanish team. He came up through Liverpool’s youth system. He has played for the Reds over 300 times.
Real Madrid is in talks to sign the Liverpool defender. Alexander-Arnold’s contract ends in June. He wants to play for Real Madrid.
His current Liverpool deal runs out this summer. He has not tried to get a better deal with Liverpool. A move is not a sure thing. It depends on talks in Spain. If they fail, he may not leave Liverpool.
The Spanish giants have been long-term admirers of Alexander-Arnold and have been working on a package to tempt him for almost two years.
If Alexander-Arnold moves to the Spanish capital, he will become the second England international at Real Madrid, alongside Jude Bellingham.
Real Madrid’s potential capture of the Reds’ vice-captain would conclude a 21-year connection with his childhood team. He is scheduled to play his 350th game against Everton on April 2, broadcast on Sky Sports.
Sources tell Sky Sports News that numerous details still need resolution. His move to Real Madrid next season isn’t a sure thing yet.
Since January, Real Madrid, like other international clubs, has been able to negotiate with Alexander-Arnold freely, according to current transfer regulations.
While a potential buyer is obliged to keep Liverpool informed and tell them if an agreement has been reached, Real have not done so yet.
But he is the club’s primary summer transfer target and it is clear his preference is to join Carlo Ancelotti’s squad.
Negotiations are complex – made even more so by the fact he is a free agent, with the issues of signing-on fees, image rights, performance bonuses and more all to be addressed.
Earlier this season, the right-back broke the Premier League record for most assists by a defender after making his 60th and 61st goals for a team-mate in Liverpool’s 3-3 draw at Newcastle, beating team-mate Andy Robertson in the process.
Should Alexander-Arnold depart, he will do so having won all of the top continental and domestic honours at Anfield, lifting the Premier League, Champions League, FA Cup and Carabao Cup, plus the UEFA Super Cup and Club World Cup.
