Trent Alexander-Arnold has stepped a step with completing his summer-free transfer movement to Real Madrid.
The International of England has confirmed the expected via an official club statement while he prepares to walk away from Anfield.
His contract to MerseSide will formally end up on 30 June as an indication that he may not be ready to travel to the FIFA Club World Cup in June.
Los Blancos and Liverpool have not commented on A when a deal will be announced, but it is expected to be confirmed at the end of May.
“I think in the first place, I want to say that it is not an easy decision and there has been a lot of thought and feeling that went into it. I have been here for 20 years now, loved every minute, achieved all my dreams, achieved everything I ever wanted here, LFC told, as quoted by Eotk.
“Everything day in, day out, for 20 years, I now have the feeling that I need a change, a new challenge for me as a player and as a person. And I think it is now the right time for me to do that.”
Alexander-Arnold is expected to sign a five-year-old deal in Madrid, with wages similar to that of Liverpool, but a career change was his most important focus.
According to ESPN reports, the 26-year-old rejected a payment package in Anfield that would have made him one of the best paid fullbacks in world football.
The conversations about Potential New Deal started in the last days of Jurgen Klopp's term of office and continued the time of Arne Slot.
Liverpool remained positive about a change of heart, while the Reds stormed to the Premier League title in Slot's debut campaign, but the spirit of Alexander-Arnold was made up to make the switch to Madrid.
