Roy Keane critiques Trent Alexander-Arnold's defense amid Real Madrid rumors

Roy Keane has criticized Liverpool's Trent Alexander-Arnold amid ongoing speculation linking the defender with a move to Real Madrid. Despite Alexander-Arnold's impressive record of over 300 appearances and his contributions to Liverpool's successes, Keane argues that the player lacks defensive skills and has been underperforming, particularly following a recent draw against Manchester United. Keane's remarks suggest that if Alexander-Arnold were to join Real Madrid, he would struggle to adapt due to his defensive shortcomings. Liverpool is currently in negotiations with Alexander-Arnold, as well as other key players, but no agreements have been reached. Meanwhile, Liverpool manager Arne Slot has defended Alexander-Arnold, praising his talent and contributions to the team. The situation remains tense as Alexander-Arnold's contract nears expiration and Real Madrid appears poised to make a move for him.
