The 'gift' price that Liverpool would ask for Alexander-Arnold in winter

Trent Alexander-Arnold's name is beginning to gain traction within Real Madrid. The Merengues have accelerated their search for a right-back following Dani Carvajal's serious injury, and although options such as Jeremie Frimpong or Pedro Porro have been mentioned as candidates to reinforce the position, the reality is that the Briton is the favourite of the sporting management to replace the Leganés player.

The footballer's contract with Liverpool ends at the end of the season and, to date, there have been no signs of a possible renewal. A situation that the Merengues want to take advantage of, who are 'rubbing their hands' at the possibility of incorporating one of the best in the world in his position as a free agent during the next summer.

Will Real Madrid try to sign Trent in winter?

However, Carvajal's absence for the rest of the season has sparked a need at the Santiago Bernabéu, where they do not see Lucas Vázquez as the only natural alternative for this area of ​​the pitch for the rest of the season. For this reason, the Madridistas are reportedly considering going for 'TAA' during the next winter transfer market.

And this is where the wind would start to 'blow in favour' of the Whites. The player is very happy with the option of landing at Chamartín and Liverpool are beginning to assume that he will not extend his commitment, so they would be open to negotiating his transfer in January, as reported by 'El Debate'.

The 'reds' have a good relationship with Madrid, which is why they would agree to open the door for him to leave in exchange for 25 million euros, a 'gift' figure for a footballer valued at 70 million according to 'Transfermarkt'. So, the Merengues would have the signing of one of their main objectives for the future of the club within their reach, although it remains to be seen whether they decide to go for him in January or maintain their roadmap to incorporate him in July at zero cost.
