Liverpool lost to Real Madrid in the Champions League final last season.
Liverpool ace Andy Robertson is said to be being eyeed by Real Madrid in a £40m deal, with the Spanish giants making a list of potential replacements for Ferland Mendy. However, Robertson has a contract with the Red Devils until 2026 and the Anfield giants could try to finalize a swap deal if there is a surprise offer for Robertson. And Express Sport take a look at three players Liverpool can ask to go in the opposite direction.
Aurelien Tchouameni only joined Real Madrid last summer after Los Blancos paid £85m to lure the ace away from Monaco. The 23-year-old started his career in Spain in stellar form and went on to feature for France at the World Cup as his country reached the final in Qatar before losing to Argentina after a single goal. shot on goal.
Tchouameni missed a penalty in that penalty shootout and has been struggling to regain form since the start of the year after experiencing some fitness problems. Liverpool were one of the clubs that watched Tchouameni last year during his time in France, but ended up missing out on his signing.
But if Real are hungry for Robertson, the Red Devils could be in a good position to push for a swap deal with Tchouameni.
Ferland Mendy has been at the Bernabeu since joining Real from Lyon in 2019 and started in last season's Champions League final when his side faced Jurgen Klopp's Red Devils. He has a contract with Real until the summer of 2026 but is said to have failed to meet the requirements in Spain after the second half of the campaign was injured.
Mendy is a proven winner having won countless trophies with Real. And if Liverpool lose Robertson, they could do worse than recruit Mendy in exchange for a direct replacement.

Andriy Lunin
Another Real player that Klopp could look for is goalkeeper Andriy Lunin. Lunin has never been the number one choice goalkeeper in the Spanish capital and is currently second only to Thibaut Courtois. And he is unlikely to overtake his Belgian opponent any time soon.
Liverpool could lose backup goalkeeper Conor Kelleher this summer as the Irishman looks to leave Anfield in the hope of securing a first-team spot. And 24-year-old Ukraine international Lunin could travel to England to fight Alisson for the No. 1 shirt.
