Trent Alexander-Arnold’s move to Real Madrid is done, according to reports in Spain, with Carlo Ancelotti’ club set to decide over a winter or summer transfer.
Liverpool star Alexander-Arnold, 26, has been the subject of intense speculation in recent times, with the defender – alongside Virgil van Dijk and Mohamed Salah – out of contract at the end of the season.
Liverpool remain in negotiations with all three stars, but no breakthrough has been made as the months tick by, and the players are able to speak to overseas clubs about joining on a free transfer in the summer.
Alexander-Arnold’s future has come under considerable scrutiny, with the 26-year-old heavily linked with Real, who saw a £20million bid rejected earlier in the window.
Now, according to Spanish outlet Marca, the Liverpool defender has verbally agreed to a move to the Bernabeu – it’s just a matter of when the transfer will come.
The England international will be able to join Madrid for free should he wait to until the summer, but the Spanish side remain keen on bringing him in during January.
