Liverpool prepare for Trent Arnold departure as £120m ace ‘rejects’ contract renewal this week- He has refused to sign a new Contract with Liverpool and is ready to Join European Club. Arne Slot has named his replacement
Rumors are intensifying about Trent Alexander-Arnold’s future at Liverpool, as the 25-year-old England defender has yet to renew his contract, which is set to expire at the end of this season.
If a new agreement isn’t reached soon, Alexander-Arnold will be free to enter talks with other clubs starting in January, potentially leaving Liverpool on a free transfer next summer.
Real Madrid is believed to be confident in landing the player, especially following Jude Bellingham’s recent transfer to the club.
According to *The Independent*, Alexander-Arnold is on Real Madrid’s shortlist, along with Manchester City’s Rodri and Arsenal’s William Saliba.
Real Madrid has been focusing on signing young prospects instead of high-profile names, which has allowed them to balance their budget while upgrading the Santiago Bernabeu, all while remaining highly competitive.
Alexander-Arnold now faces the choice of either joining Real Madrid to contribute to their current success or staying with Liverpool to help restore the club’s former dominance in European football. Given Madrid’s progress, this may influence his decision.
