With numerous injuries in defense, Real Madrid have already identified the positions they want to strengthen, if possible this winter. And speculation is rife on the other side of the Pyrenees, particularly around the Spanish champion’s interest in Trent Alexander-Arnold.
At the end of his contract next June with Liverpool, the English right-back presents himself as the ideal recruit to occupy the right flank of the Madrid defense in place of Lucas Vazquez. The Spanish international is currently helping out in this position in the absence of Dani Carvajal, who has a serious knee injury. According to
The Athleticthe Reds have already declined an offer from Castilian management for Alexander-Arnold. The latter, however, has the possibility of starting discussions with the club of his choice from January 1, but only with a view to a free transfer at the end of this financial year.
Ancelotti delighted with his team
At a press conference before the trip to Valencia this Friday for the 19th day of La Liga, Carlo Ancelotti, the Blancos coach, preferred to avoid the question of the winter transfer window. The Italian technician was satisfied with the elements at his disposal, despite a particularly busy schedule.
“Talking about it is a little more complicated. We’ll see. The only thing I can say is that we have a lot of games in January and we are focusing on that. Talking about the transfer window is not easy for me at the moment. I don’t want to talk about it, because it’s not the time to talk about it here. We’ll see what happens, keeping in mind that I’m delighted with the squad I have.”assured the Mister.
