Real Madrid have made it clear to Liverpool that they are interested in signing Trent Alexander-Arnold, with reports suggesting the Spaniards are prepared to negotiate a deal for the right-back as a free agent shortly.

The 25-year-old’s contract with Liverpool is set to expire in the coming months, and Los Blancos are reportedly willing to take advantage of this situation. The No.66 has long been regarded as one of the best full-backs in Europe, and his performances for Liverpool have made him a key figure in the English side's setup.

However, with his contract situation unresolved, Real Madrid are exploring the possibility of bringing him to the Santiago Bernabeu, where his versatility would complement their current squad. Liverpool are likely to face a difficult decision in the coming weeks, as they risk losing one of their star players to direct rivals in Europe.

With Real Madrid's interest now public, Alexander-Arnold will be at the centre of intense speculation regarding his future. Should the deal materialise, it would mark a significant move for both the player and the Spanish giants.
