On Friday it was made by all by Real Madrid: Trent Alexander-Arnold will sign for the club in the coming transfer window. The former right back of Liverpool expired his contract, but Los Blancos is older than a fee to pay him to take him to the Santiago Bernabeu on time to play the club of Club.
Real Madrid could have had him for free in July, and Alexander-Arnold would have missed only three games in the group phases against Pachuca, Al-Hilal and RB Salzburg. That is why it was with some surprise when it was revealed in England that Los Blancos would not pay the originally reported € 5 million, but € 10 million for his services.
The 26-year-old will also not be changed from the deal. Despite the fact that Real Madrid eventually paid a fee for him, Alexander-Arnold made somewhat promised and to close his deal to make it an affordable deal for Real Madrid. As such, he will be treated the same as the will of Antonio Rudiger and David Alaba, who did the same in Chelsea and Bayern Munich respectively, although Kylian Mbappe is the most obvious example. MD says that Alexander-Arnold has been established to receive a signing bonus of € 20 million from Los Blancos.
Still, for the quality of the right back, he is, and the age where he is, the five -year -old deal still works as economically in the large schedule of the market. Real Madrid has already spent € 60 million on Dean Huijsen from Bournemouth, and Los Blancos is now working on bringing in Benfica left back Alvaro Carreras. It is true that Real Madrid will also focus on a midfielder, but if they do, the intention is not to spend great.
