Real Madrid nears deal to sign Trent Alexander-Arnold from Liverpool in January

Real Madrid is reportedly close to signing Trent Alexander-Arnold from Liverpool in January for around €50 million (£42 million, $54.3 million). This comes as Liverpool prepares for the possibility of losing their vice-captain, whose contract expires in eight months. Alexander-Arnold has been with Liverpool since childhood and is considered one of the best right-backs in the world. His potential move to Real Madrid follows a season-ending injury to their regular right-back, Dani Carvajal, prompting the club to seek immediate reinforcements. Despite previous denials from Liverpool sources about his departure, ongoing discussions between Real Madrid and Alexander-Arnold's representatives suggest a deal could be imminent. Liverpool fans await clarity on his future as the January transfer window approaches.
