London: So, it looks like Real Madrid is pretty keen on Trent Alexander-Arnold. They’ve been chatting with his camp since November, and they seem pretty confident about it.
Right now, Trent’s contract is up in July, which means he can start talking to other clubs. He’s been free to negotiate since the start of the year, and you know how that goes—everyone’s buzzing about it.
Recently, Marca, a big sports paper in Madrid, had a headline saying he wants to join Madrid. That definitely stirred the pot! Trent even gave a cheeky celebration after scoring against West Ham, like he was responding to all the chatter.
On New Year’s Eve, Liverpool turned down an offer from Madrid for him. No numbers were thrown around, but reports say Madrid is ready to splash about $25 million to get him before the season wraps up.
Sources in Spain think Trent’s been leaning towards Madrid lately. They’re pretty sure he’ll sign a pre-contract in January, probably for four years, with a nice signing bonus to sweeten the deal.
It’s a bit tricky for Liverpool, though. They probably won’t let him go in January. But if they did, he’d slot right into the Madrid lineup since their main right-back is out for the season with a knee injury.
