Madrid READY for box-office Trent Alexander-Arnold arrival | OneFootball

With stories, opinions and theories over Trent Alexander-Arnold’s future approaching fever-pitch, Liverpool’s star right-back has been spotted in the very city which he may soon be calling home.

It’s no secret that the contract situation at Liverpool revolving around Alexander-Arnold, Mohamed Salah and Virgil van Dijk is a concerning one. With just over a month to go until all three can start formal talks for free transfers, it is the case of the former which seems to be drawing the most attention.

In the short-term, of course, Trent has used this international break to recover from the injury which saw him substituted during the first half of Liverpool’s final game before the break, the 2-0 win against Aston Villa. Unlike other first-team players returning from injury layoffs such as Alisson and Harvey Elliott, he was not seen in training on Tuesday.

Not to mention there is a growing appetite to see Conor Bradley get even more time on the pitch with Liverpool, given his stellar goal-scoring performance for Northern Ireland against Luxembourg.

All this in the midst of persistent speculation that Alexander-Arnold will be leaving for free to Real Madrid, which started in earnest this time last year when he had 18 months to run on his current deal. Now, with just over seven months of that contract to go, he has been spotted in an area of Madrid.
