Alexander-Arnold's move to Real Madrid could disrupt Barca's plans

The right-back's file has become a priority in the Real Madrid offices. The serious injury to Dani Carvajal, who will miss the rest of the season, has accelerated the Merengues' plans in the position, since they have been forced to speed up the search for a replacement for the second captain and Lucas Vázquez for the short and medium-term future.

In this sense, Trent Alexander-Arnold appears as the preferred option of the Madrid club's sports management, since the Englishman ends his contract with Liverpool on June 30, 2025 and has not yet signed his renewal. The Vikings are betting on his incorporation at zero cost during the following summer, waiting until January to enter the operation from absolute legality by entering the last six months of his commitment.

Liverpool chooses his possible replacement

This situation has set off alarms at Anfield Road, where they have decided to cover their backs despite the fact that they will do everything possible to retain him. However, if the right-back finally decides to head to Chamartín, the 'reds' would have already set their sights on his possible replacement, who would be none other than Jeremie Frimpong, a 23-year-old Dutchman who continues to shine at Bayer Leverkusen.

The footballer played a fundamental role in achieving the Liga-Cup double for Aspirin, which is why several clubs have him on their radar, including FC Barcelona, ​​where they tested his signing last summer. According to 'Caught Offside', Arne Slot would see him as the ideal replacement for 'TAA' in his squad, and his termination clause valued at 40 million euros makes him a relatively affordable piece in the current market.

The priority of those from Merseyside is to keep Alexander-Arnold in their squad, but if he decides to try new horizons, Frimpong appears as the first option on the club's list of potential players, a scenario that would rule out a possible arrival of the player to the Ciudad Condal. In addition, Vanderson and Michael Kayose appear as Liverpool's 'plan B and C', which is beginning to plan a future without one of its great figures of recent years.
