Real Madrid remains committed to signing Trent Alexander-Arnold before the Club World Cup, according to recent developments. The English right-back, known for his attacking style of play and set-piece expertise, has been a long-term target for the Spanish giants. Alexander-Arnold, who plays as a right-back, has previously been under contract with Liverpool, where he has spent his entire professional career to date.
Discussions regarding his transfer are reportedly ongoing, with the issue of compensation being a point of contention, as reported yesterday. Despite this, it is claimed that Alexander-Arnold will be a Real Madrid player in the near future. The transfer is said to be imminent, with a five-year deal being the likely agreement, according to a report on May 5.
Alexander-Arnold’s transfer history has been closely followed, with Real Madrid having first shown interest in him at the start of the year. The club had prioritised his signing for a July transfer, with a formal contract proposal being submitted to the player in March. The development marks a significant move in the transfer market, with Alexander-Arnold’s departure from Liverpool being confirmed following his transfer decision. Real Madrid’s persistence in pursuing the player has ultimately led to this apparent breakthrough.
