Trent Alexander-Arnold's setbacks are relayed in AS this Tuesday. And so that the Madrid daily newspaper is interested in the right side of Liverpool, it is because there is a good reason. At the end of the contract with the Reds, the English international is likely to commit this summer with Real.
The Merengues will recover a player with undeniable offensive potential. The quality of his right foot and his sense of game have been happy to have Liverpool for several seasons, just like his complicity with Mohamed Salah. But Alexander-Arnold may have as many faults as qualities, especially on a defensive level. His placement sometimes leaves something to be desired, as is his physical commitment, and his sense of duel.
Alexander-Arnold, a catastrophic defender for Real?
The gaps of Trent Alexander-Arnold were exhibited in broad daylight on Sunday, when English lived a ordeal against Jérémy Doku. The Reds number 66 offered an unnatiable record, that of the player who has been drunk the greatest number of times in a first league match in 10 years. It happened at 11 or 12 times, depending on the various specialized sites.
Miraculously, this did not cost Liverpool, whose defensive performance of the overall has been impressive at Etihad Stadium, notably thanks to the van Dijk-Konaté duo in the axis. Because Alexander-Arnold did not arrang his image . In January, Roy Keane had already attacked him after a match against Manchester United in January, saying that he was more likely to join Tranmere Rovers than Real Madrid with this type of performance.“He played 300 games in England, and yet it looks like it is the first time that he has played a right back”
railed the Irishman. At least, Real Madrid is completely warned …
Alexander-Arnold is still behind the second Reds goal with a long ball for Mohamed Salah, a decisive passer for Dominik Szoboszlai.
