Already the end of a rumor? According to The AthleticLiverpool rejected an official approach from Real Madrid for Trent Alexander-Arnold at the start of the winter transfer window. The Spanish club, interested in the England international at the end of his contract next summer, has sounded out the management of Anfield for a possible transfer in January. However, Liverpool have made it clear they are not willing to negotiate the departure of their vice-captain, without even discussing numbers. Separately, the club denied Spanish rumors that Alexander-Arnold had expressed his desire to join Madrid.

As a reminder, from January 1, Alexander-Arnold will be free to discuss with foreign clubs for a free transfer at the end of the season (his contract ends on June 30, 2025, Editor's note). Although Real Madrid hope to convince him to sign a pre-contract, Liverpool remain confident about an extension with their player trained at the club. The Reds' firm response to this first approach shows that a departure in January will remain complicated.
