Report: What Liverpool have done to keep Trent Alexander-Arnold at the club | OneFootball

Liverpool right-back Trent Alexander-Arnold has been linked with a move to Real Madrid for a long time.

The Premier League leaders have failed to secure a new deal for the defender and uncertainty over his future has only increased recently.

The defender has been heavily criticised by fans for not making his clear future since with time it has only become clear that the England international has his heart set on a move to Real Madrid.

​Liverpool are making a final push to retain Trent Alexander-Arnold amid strong interest from Real Madrid, who are reportedly close to securing the right-back on a free transfer, according to Fichajes.

Despite Liverpool’s efforts to extend his contract, discussions have stalled, and Alexander-Arnold has yet to publicly commit to a decision.

Real Madrid have offered him a five-year deal, and with his contract expiring in June, the Spanish club are optimistic about finalising the move.

However, recent developments have introduced uncertainty. The potential departure of Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti, who played a significant role in courting Alexander-Arnold, has reportedly caused the player to reconsider.

Liverpool’s resurgence under manager Arne Slot, including a recent victory that brings them close to clinching the Premier League title, may also influence his decision.

Despite all this, the Spanish giants are confident about securing the signature of the defender who will add more quality, depth and experience in their squad.

Alexander-Arnold will get the opportunity to play in a team full of world class players including his childhood friend Jude Bellingham.

Having dragged talks about his future for so long, it has become clear that the player has made up his mind to leave for a new adventure.
