According to reports, the 26-year-old defender, whose contract with Liverpool expires at the end of the season, may leave the Premier League leaders as a free agent.
Despite Liverpool’s efforts to secure a new deal, Alexander-Arnold seems inclined to explore new opportunities abroad.
Spanish media suggests that the England international has already informed Liverpool of his decision to join Real Madrid, where he could reunite with close friend Jude Bellingham.
Gary Lineker, a former Barcelona player, has publicly backed the move. Speaking on The Rest is Football podcast, Lineker said, “It makes sense.
Real Madrid has mastered free transfers, and Trent would thrive in Spain. He’s close to Bellingham and fits perfectly with their style. They won’t overly criticize his defensive skills like they do in England.”
Lineker added, “Real Madrid or Barcelona offer a unique experience. Even with the Premier League’s dominance, the world’s best players still dream of Spain.
Trent’s passing range would be celebrated there. He’s in his prime and deserves a fresh challenge.”
Alexander-Arnold fueled rumors with a cryptic celebration after scoring Liverpool’s fourth goal in a 5-0 victory over West Ham, making a “talking” gesture with his hand.
Liverpool manager Arne Slot hinted at its significance, saying, “The celebration might reveal something. He’s playing brilliantly, and I’m happy with him, as I am with Mo and Virgil. For now, I’ll let his performances speak for themselves.”
As Liverpool braces for a possible departure, Conor Bradley is seen as a promising successor. While the club hopes to retain their star right-back, the allure of Real Madrid may prove too strong to resist.
All part of the plan by the corrupt RM. They approach contracted players, which is not permitted, they then use ‘La Marca’ to brief that the player is interested and then drip feed stories about their interest in the player. This is all timed to cause maximum disruption to the club and their fan base who will turn on the player, thinking they want out, even if not true.
This is part of a play book they use time and again and it is clearly being used again here with TAA. He will then think the fans are against him, making his decision to leave easier. As a 50+ year LFC fan, I do not believe he will stay and am concerned the disruption this will cause in the dressing room, when their vice captain wants to leave on a free in the Summer.
For me, if he does want to start negotiations with RM and leave on a free, he should lose the vice captaincy and his automatic starting place in the first team.
At the end of the day it’s matter of personal decision of his career, so whatever he think best for him, he can decide joining Madrid and be an other TAA or staying at his boyhood club and legend of the club, treated by his people respectfully or getting abuse every time he come
Why would we bid for him if he still hasn’t decided?
Real Madrid’s eyes on Trent! Summer move? The plot thickens!
as usual, they ‘tried’ to sign him knowing full well liverpool would not accept. It’s gonna be the boards excuse when he doesn’t come in the summer
