Real Madrid will sign Alexander-Arnold this summer. |
Marca claims Real Madrid have reached an agreement to sign Trent Alexander-Arnold on a free transfer this summer. He has also informed Liverpool's management of his plans to move to the Bernabeu.
The English defender's contract with Liverpool expires in June. In fact, Alexander-Arnold was allowed to negotiate with Real Madrid from the beginning of the year. "Los Blancos" successfully acquired the talented English defender without paying any transfer fee.
This decision marks a significant turning point in Alexander-Arnold's career. After many years with Liverpool – where he rose through the ranks of the youth academy and won major titles such as the Premier League and the Champions League – the move to Real Madrid demonstrates the English player's desire to conquer new challenges.
Here, Alexander-Arnold has the opportunity to play alongside world- class stars such as Vinicius Jr, Jude Bellingham, and Kylian Mbappé, creating a promising and powerful team. This move will undoubtedly leave Liverpool fans feeling regretful.
Alexander-Arnold is an icon for the Merseyside club, considered a prime example of the Merseyside youth academy. Losing a talent like Alexander-Arnold for free is a huge blow for "The Kop".
Currently, the England international is valued at €70 million, making him the most expensive right-back in the world. Liverpool's management had previously wanted to make Alexander-Arnold the highest-paid full-back in football history, with a new deal offering him £300,000 per week.
The Anfield club wanted to keep Alexander-Arnold with a five-year contract, totaling £93 million (including signing bonuses and other incentives if the player agreed to sign the deal). However, in the end, Alexander-Arnold chose to join Real Madrid, where he could receive a similar, or even higher, salary as he moved on a free transfer.
