Fabrizio Romano has shared the latest details on the potential transfer of Trent Alexander-Arnold to Real Madrid. Alexander-Arnold's future at Liverpool is in question, with Real Madrid reportedly keeping a close eye on the right-back. His current contract runs out next summer, but no new deal has been announced yet.
This uncertainty has sparked concern among fans and pundits, including former Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher, who believes that prolonged negotiations might hint at a possible departure from Anfield.
Renowned football journalist Fabrizio Romano weighed in, mentioning that no significant progress has been made on Alexander-Arnold's contract. While Real Madrid continues to observe the situation, they are not in active negotiations with the player. Romano emphasized that Liverpool holds the responsibility, as they remain in talks with Alexander-Arnold.
On his YouTube channel, Romano explained: “Since March, nothing has changed. Real Madrid remains interested, but they are not discussing terms or contracts with Alexander-Arnold. Discussions are not advanced, though their interest has been ongoing.”
He further added, “What happens this summer depends on Liverpool, as they have the priority and are in direct communication with Alexander-Arnold. It’s up to them to decide.”
Losing Trent Alexander-Arnold would be a major blow for Liverpool, as he is widely regarded as one of the top right-backs in the world.
The 25-year-old has played 318 games for Liverpool, scoring 19 goals and providing 83 assists. Recently, he expressed his desire to stay at the club, but the final decision rests with Liverpool’s management.
Fans are eagerly waiting for updates on contract renewals for Alexander-Arnold, as well as for Mo Salah and Virgil van Dijk.
