What has been an open secret is now reported as a fact in England. Trent Alexander-Arnold has reportedly agreed to a move to Real Madrid, with a contract offer on the table of Los Blancos Al.
While it had been reported in Spain since February that the conditions had been agreed and a deal '99%'was done, there seemed to be some doubt in Liverpool whether Alexander-Arnold would continue. Manager Arne Slot has been in the charm offensive in an attempt to convince the English star of England to stay in the club, but it seems that Real Madrid's confidence in a deal was not out of place.
Alexander-Arnold is ready to sign a five-year-old deal with the Santiago Bernabeu with a salary of € 15 million a year, with international teammate and friend Jude Bellingham. Talksport says that Alexander-Arnold has agreed to the deal, and the athletics explains that although the contracts have not been signed, Los Blancos work to close the deal immediately. Real Madrid will inform Liverpool as soon as the deal is closed, something that has not happened, but everything seems to be present to quickly complete all formalities.
Adding Alexander-Arnold is an important coup for Real Madrid, who will receive one of the best right backs in the game, after he had tried an offer for him in January to make an offer that was rejected by Liverpool. He seems to resolve their future for the long term in the right back position, with Dani Carvajal recovering from a cross magazines and will be 33 this year. Lucas Vazquez, who is out of the contract at the end of the season and already 33, will discuss the conditions with the club at the end of the season. Even with his age and injury, it will undoubtedly be a fierce battle between Alexander-Arnold and Carvajal for the starting point next season.
