While Real Madrid initially wanted to recruit Trent Alexander-Arnold freely at the end of the season, the Englishman could ultimately arrive earlier than expected.
The Real Madrid undoubtedly has one of the best squads in the world, accustomed to having several stars in its ranks, like in the Galactic era. Today, players like Kylian Mbappé, Vinicius Jr, Jude Bellingham, Rodrygo and Federico Valverde make up this team. Even with these talents, Real Madrid wants to continue piling on new stars.
The Madrilenians are looking to strengthen themselves further, and one of their targets is Liverpool’s English full-back Trent Alexander-Arnold. The Spanish club has been considering recruiting this player, a true child of Liverpool, for several months. Free from any contract at the end of the season, Real Madrid are working to acquire him for free, a golden opportunity to recruit one of the best full-backs in the world without transfer fees. However, according to Marca, Real Madrid hope to attract Alexander-Arnold in January, as part of an early transfer.
Madrid before the 2025/2026 season?
Trent Alexander-Arnold has been courted by Real Madrid for many months, and his transfer to the Merengues is eagerly awaited. His compatriot, Jude Bellinghamwould even act as agents to encourage him to join the Spanish capital. A transfer from the winter transfer window would considerably strengthen the Merengues, who lost their starting right side, Dani Carvajalfor the whole season.
However, this operation would pose a real challenge to Liverpool on a sporting level. Alexander-Arnold is indeed having a very good season. With 5 assists and one goal in 23 matcheshe occupies a central place in Arne Slot’s team. Losing him mid-season would be a major handicap for the Reds, who are among the big favorites for the title in England, as well as in the Champions League.
