Real Madrid and Barcelona have set their sights on Trent Alexander-Arnold for a potential move from Liverpool next year.
The 25-year-old defender has been a key player at Anfield since his debut in 2016, amassing more than 300 appearances. However, with just one year left on his current contract, Alexander-Arnold’s future is uncertain.
Reports from Diario AS suggest that both Spanish giants are closely monitoring the situation, as the England international has not yet committed to a new contract with Liverpool.
It is believed that Alexander-Arnold could be considering a transfer, particularly due to the emergence of fellow academy right-back Conor Bradley.
Although Liverpool is expected to offer a substantial increase on Alexander-Arnold’s £180,000-a-week salary, the club is hesitant to exceed its financial constraints to retain him.
Despite this, it is unlikely that Liverpool will allow Alexander-Arnold to leave this summer, considering his deep ties to the club.
As a result, top European clubs like Real Madrid and Barcelona continue to keep a close watch on Alexander-Arnold’s situation.
