Trent Alexander-Arnold Linked to Real Madrid

Liverpool is reportedly preparing a £91 million bid in January for Bournemouth's Milos Kerkez and Real Sociedad's Martin Zubimendi. Meanwhile, Real Madrid is interested in signing Liverpool's Trent Alexander-Arnold, but they only wish to acquire him as a free agent after his contract expires at the end of the season. The Spanish club's need for a right-back has intensified due to Dani Carvajal's injury, although they are willing to wait until summer to avoid paying a transfer fee. Alexander-Arnold has expressed his desire to remain with Liverpool for at least the current season, stating he aims to captain the club. Despite the speculation, pundits believe that if a contract agreement were imminent, it would have been reached by now, leading to concerns about his potential departure. Other Liverpool players, including Virgil van Dijk and Mohamed Salah, are also facing uncertainty regarding their futures.
