_Report: Trent Alexander-Arnold to Leave Liverpool Amid Real Madrid Interest_
Liverpool's Trent Alexander-Arnold is reportedly set to leave the club in 2025, with Real Madrid emerging as the frontrunner to secure his signature.
_Contract Situation_
Alexander-Arnold's contract expires in June 2025, allowing him to agree to a pre-contract agreement with a European club in January. Liverpool is bracing for his departure, as the 26-year-old has been linked to Madrid.
_Real Madrid's Interest_
Spanish publication Marca claims Madrid "know" Alexander-Arnold won't renew his Liverpool contract. With Dani Carvajal injured, Madrid may accelerate their pursuit. Alexander-Arnold is their priority, but Liverpool will demand a significant transfer fee if he doesn't run down his contract.
_Alternative Options_
Madrid is also considering:
1. Pedro Porro (Tottenham Hotspur) - a creative outlet for Spurs.
2. Jeremie Frimpong (Bayer Leverkusen) - a speedy right-back.
3. Juanlu (Sevilla) - a 21-year-old prospect.
_Liverpool's Stance_
The Athletic reports Liverpool will only consider selling Alexander-Arnold if he doesn't extend his contract. The club values him highly, but the player's cryptic comments on his future have fueled speculation.
_Implications_
Alexander-Arnold's potential departure would be a significant loss for Liverpool. His 59 Premier League assists make him the most creative full-back in history.
