Liverpool star’s agent breaks silence on potential Real Madrid transfer | OneFootball

Liverpool stance clear as Dominik Szoboszlai agent responds to Real Madrid talk

Speculation linking Liverpool midfielder Dominik Szoboszlai with Real Madrid rarely stays quiet for long, especially when form and reputation collide at the highest level. Recent comments from Hungary coach Marco Rossi sparked fresh debate, suggesting that playing for Los Blancos could be a long term ambition for the 25-year-old. Yet, within hours, the player’s camp moved quickly to calm the noise surrounding his future.

Agent comments reshape transfer narrative

During an interview with Hungarian broadcaster NB1, Szoboszlai’s representative Matyas Esterhazy delivered a measured response designed to lower the temperature. He explained: “It’s completely normal for the public, when Dominik is performing like this, to talk about what’s next and if there’s something higher.

“For us it’s not a topic. We are mid-season, he has a lot of work ahead of him in the Premier League, the FA Cup and the Champions League. He has said many times how important this competition is for him.

“At the moment to talk about what will happen in the summer, in my opinion is not correct. Not to mention, Liverpool are one of the biggest clubs in the world and Dominik is in a position within the team that has a lot of reserve, so we are not looking outside or elsewhere.”

Those words carry weight. Liverpool supporters have seen enough high profile departures to know how quickly rumours can gather momentum. By addressing the situation directly, the agent has attempted to frame the conversation around performance and focus rather than hypothetical transfers.

Form driving interest from Real Madrid

Dominik Szoboszlai’s impact under Arne Slot has been central to Liverpool’s success since the club’s Premier League triumph in 2024-25. His energy between midfield lines and ability to dictate tempo have drawn admiration across Europe. Praise from teammates has only amplified the attention, with Mo Salah recently calling him “one of the best players in the world” right now.

Real Madrid’s interest, whether genuine or speculative, reflects a familiar pattern. When Liverpool players reach elite consistency, the Spanish giants inevitably appear in the rumour cycle. Names such as Steve McManaman, Michael Owen, Xabi Alonso and Trent Alexander-Arnold remain reminders of how that story can unfold.

Contract talks and long term Liverpool outlook

Despite the external chatter, signs point towards stability at Anfield. Szoboszlai hinted recently that discussions over a potential new contract are ongoing, even though his current deal runs until June 2028. That detail suggests confidence from both player and club, reinforcing the idea that Liverpool remain the ideal environment for his development.

Qualification for the Champions League continues to play a strategic role in retention. For Liverpool, maintaining a competitive edge in Europe reduces the risk of top talents being drawn elsewhere. For Szoboszlai, starring weekly in front of a supportive crowd provides a platform that few clubs can replicate.

Real Madrid’s history and prestige will always attract attention, yet football decisions often come down to context, timing and trust. Right now, Liverpool offer all three. With the season still unfolding and silverware on the line, the focus appears firmly on performances rather than possibilities.
