Transfer Rumours: Liverpool star heading to Madrid?
Could another English player be moving to Real Madrid?
Real Madrid are eager to lure Trent Alexander-Arnold away from Anfield this summer.
It has been reported that Trent's England teammate Jude Bellingham might be playing a crucial role in this potential move, as their bond is thought to have deepened during Euro 2024.
The midfielder joined Los Blancos last year from Borussia Dortmund and had an outstanding debut season, winning both La Liga and the Champions League, and quickly becoming a key player.
It's uncertain whether Real Madrid will follow up their interest with a formal offer for Alexander-Arnold, who came through Liverpool's academy.
At the same time, it's unclear if Liverpool would consider letting their versatile right-back go. This is a player that is idolised by the Kopp and other Liverpool fans.
Currently, there has been no discussion about Alexander-Arnold signing a new contract with his boyhood club.
Some suggest that Jürgen Klopp's departure from Liverpool could lead to something of a mass exodus at Anfield, with key players Virgil van Dijk and Mohamed Salah also having their contracts expire in June 2025.
The best reaction
Holly, a Liverpool fan, from Chorley, said: "This would be terrible. Trent is such an important player for us. He gets the club. He gets the fans. He also played a huge part in our success under Klopp and would be a key part of the new manager's plans. I really hope there is nothing in these rumours."

Holly's opinion about the situation was backed by William, a Liverpool fan from Bradford. He said, "We should hold on to him. As fans, we want to see the team competing for big trophies again, and this player can help us achieve that. I'm confident that the new manager and coaching staff would prefer to keep him, so I don't think there's any truth to this story. YNWA."
