With no new deal with the Reds in sight, Alexander-Arnold has long been linked to a move to Carlo Ancelotti’s team.
The agreement has been verified by Josep Pedrerol, who is close to Florentino Perez, the president of Real Madrid.
He declared, “Alexander-Arnold has finalized a deal to join Real Madrid in June.” “He will play for Real Madrid next season and arrive on a free transfer, but there are still some minor details to work out.”
However, a January transfer seems improbable.
He went on to say, “There is a chance that Liverpool will reduce their demands [in January], but this seems really challenging because Liverpool is fighting for everything.” “It would be quite difficult to release a starting full-back at this point.
“Real Madrid won’t spend the €70–80 million Liverpool is thinking about spending on his arrival right now.”
Real Madrid plans to pay €40 million in January.
With Dani Carvajal sidelined for the season due to injury and Ancelotti afraid to force Fede Valverde into the position in crucial games out of concern for losing his midfield clout, Real Madrid is facing a right-back problem.
They will therefore spend money this month to get a player for that position.Real Madrid will attempt to recruit a player in January, but they won’t spend more than €30–40 million, according to Pedrerol. That is the highest amount.
Alexander-Arnold is currently scheduled to join Real Madrid in the summer, but if Liverpool reduces their demands to €35 million or perhaps €40 million, he might show up this month.
“It’s finished for June, and it might be finished for January.”
According to a Relevo report, Real Madrid has given up on signing Trent Alexander-Arnold during the winter transfer window, which runs counter to these assertions.
