Real Madrid is positioning itself to recruit Trent Alexander-Arnold, the right back of Liverpool, whose contract expires in June 2025. According to The Telegraphthe Madrid club, faithful to its strategy of zero-cost signings, plans to take action to attract the English international from the next summer transfer window, without transfer compensation. This approach has already paid off for players like David Alaba, Antonio Rüdiger, and more recently Kylian Mbappé.
From January 1, 2025, Alexander-Arnold will be free to negotiate with other clubs, and discussions between his entourage and Real Madrid could intensify. Although Liverpool are doing everything to retain their star player, contract negotiations remain stalled, opening a door to the Madrilenians.
Motivation beyond money
Alexander-Arnold, currently paid £180,000 a week, has made no secret of his desire to add to his prize list. In a recent statement, he said: “I want to win trophies. I am motivated to succeed and be part of the elite. » This ambition could push him to join a club like Real Madrid, known for its success in the Champions League and its multiple titles.
With a squad already strengthened by the arrival of Jude Bellingham, Real Madrid represent a unique opportunity for Alexander-Arnold to realize his winning aspirations, while Liverpool desperately try to retain this talent trained at the club’s academy.
