'Liverpool Fullback'Trent Alexander Arnold (26)'s 'Real' saga continues.
Spain's leading sports media Marca reported on the 28th (Korea time) 'Alexander Arnold has already told Liverpool that he wants to play for Real Madrid'
Liverpool is moving to extend contracts and sign contracts with key players such as Alexander Arnold, Van Dijk and Mohamed Salah at a time when contracts with them expire next summer. However, according to Marca 'Arnold, staying in Liverpool is approaching virtually impossible' is a thing. 'Not just because of the temptation and charm of Real Madrid, but also because of his ambition to challenge new experiences. In particular, he is known to have received a lot of information about Real Madrid from Jude Bellingham, his best friend of the English national team.
The media wrote that `Liverpool is making every effort to agree on a contract extension with Arnold, which Liverpool fans aspire to before January 1 next year, and negotiations have been held several times, but the player himself is already struggling with the club expressing his intention toward Real Madrid.' Regarding Arnold, who will become an FA if he fails to extend his contract, Liverpool has to decide whether to secure a transfer fee from Real Madrid in the January transfer market or to let him go at no cost after spending as well as the contract period.
Marca said 'Real Madrid is watching the current situation. He said that he is ready to start negotiations at any time when the Liverpool side requests him to do so, adding that there is a possibility that Liverpool will come to the negotiation table not to miss the last chance to receive the transfer fee with only a few months left before the expiration of the player's contract. 'This situation has been repeated in recent years in the winter transfer market, as well as in the process of recruiting Alaba, Rudiger and Mbappe,' it added.
England's national team Arnold is the world's best fullback with a value of 75 million euros (about 115.4 billion won) and has four assists in 16 games this season. Under Jurgen Klopp, he is a key resource that has led Liverpool to all of its success and is also a key player under current manager Arne Slot. According to sources familiar with Liverpool, the Liverpool club is not considering selling Arnold in the January transfer window. Ahead of the championship challenge, the team's star players are strongly willing to keep them until the end of the contract, he said.
