Real Madrid will increase the transfer pressure for Trent Alexander-Arnold in early 2025.
Alexander-Arnold is out of contract with Liverpool at the end of the 2024/2025 season and talks about an extension are underway.
The England international effectively has two choices: sign a five-year extension on Merseyside, or accept a new challenge in Madrid in 2025.
Once the 26-year-old enters the final six months of his contract, he can open talks with other clubs.
Real Madrid remain confident of securing a move for the Liverpool-born defender despite the Reds' strong start to the season under new boss Arne Slot.
Conflicting reports over where Alexander-Arnold will play next season continue to swirl and former Liverpool Jamie Carragher believes he still has plenty of options.
Carragher firmly backs Alexander-Arnold to stay at Liverpool, but with the potential of a future move to Madrid.
“If I could give Trent one piece of advice it would be to sign a deal and get a realistic release clause so that the option is there if there is another move,” said Diario AS.
“If Real Madrid are still keen, Liverpool can get some money and Trent will be remembered as Liverpool's best right-back.”
