According to reports, Real Madrid is considering making a big-money approach to acquire Trent Alexander-Arnold, the right-back for Liverpool.
The England international has not yet signed a new deal with the Reds, which appears to be fueling new rumors about his future. According to the Spanish media, Madrid is a big fan of the player.
Even though it was previously reported that Alexander-Arnold, 25, was expected to sign a new deal at Anfield in the upcoming months, there is now talk that Real may be putting together a proposal for the player.
Since this would be a major setback for Liverpool, they will undoubtedly take all necessary precautions to avoid it, but if the team misses out on the Champions League for another season, Alexander-Arnold might be enticed to leave.
Lloyd Kelly is now being connected to Liverpool, so it’s possible that some of the proceeds from the sale of Alexander-Arnold may be used for new investments.
Although Kelly can’t replace a player with Alexander-Arnold’s level of influence, LFC would be wise to sign a long-term replacement for Andrew Robertson.
Prior to January, AC Milan is rumored to be interested in Kelly as well; however, Jakub Kiwior of Arsenal has also been connected to them as a potential replacement.
