Real Madrid regard Liverpool star very highly, yet to make any move – report | OneFootball

Signing the world’s best player in Kylian Mbappe and one of the brightest young talents in Endrick, Real Madrid justified their title as the Galacticos earlier this year.

Florentino Perez, however, does not plan to stop there as he already has his next set of transfer targets lined up for the upcoming transfer windows.

Alphonso Davies, for long, has been linked with a move to Madrid as the team’s next star left-back. In recent days, the right-back situation has garnered interest as well with Liverpool’s Trent Alexander-Arnold emerging as an option.

Highly regarded internally

As revealed in a recent update by The Daily Briefing, Alexander-Arnold remains very highly regarded and rated at Real Madrid and there is growing consensus over him as the team’s next right-back.

Los Blancos, however, are yet to make any contact with his agents over the player’s transfer and these are thus early days.

Liverpool will first talk to the defender and his camp to see if he wishes to stay or leave the club and a decision will be taken from there. As it stands, however, the interest from Madrid is very real.

The 25-year-old’s contract with the Merseyside club ends next June and he is thus months away from being free to negotiate an agreement with clubs as a free agent. Liverpool are thus scampering and will hope for a final decision soon over his situation.

Over the years, Alexander-Arnold has established himself as one of the world’s best right-backs, especially from an attacking perspective.

Last season, he had three goals and four assists to his name in the league with an average of 2.3 key passes per game.

At just 25 years of age, the Liverpool star would be the perfect replacement for Dani Carvajal who is at the twilight of his career.

His arrival would complete the next-generation dream team for Los Blancos, but there is a long way to go before that materialises.
