Seriously Targeting Liverpool Defender Trent Alexander-Arnold, Real Madrid Prepare 1.5 T Rupiah
JAKARTA - Real Madrid are serious about bringing Liverpool defender Trent Alexander-Arnold. In order to attract this England national team player, Madrid offered Liverpool 75 million or approximately 1.5 trillion rupiah.
Madrid is no longer just checking waves. The Spanish La Liga giant shows the seriousness of recruiting Alexander-Arnold. The 25-year-old defender purchase plan will be carried out in the summer transfer window.
Alexander-Arnold is on Madrid's radar because it is believed the player can strengthen the team's defense sector. Coach Carlo Ancelotti is indeed building a new squad.
Not only the front line by bringing Kylian Mbappe, Brazil's young star Endrick and Erling Haaland's next target.
Ancelotti also felt the need to fix the back sector because some of the defenders were already over 30.
Among them were Nacho (34), Dani Carvajal (31), Antonio Rudiger (31) and David Alaba (31). Meanwhile, Eder Milito is still struggling with the long injury he suffered.
Madrid is still monitoring the development of Alexander-Arnold whose contract period at Liverpool will expire in 2025. With a contract remaining one more year, Liverpool must rush to renew their contract.
It's just that even though Alexander-Arnold is one of the priority players whose contracts are maintained and renewed, Liverpool has never opened negotiations with their local products.
Repotnya, posisi Alexander-Arnold sudah bebas untuk melakukan negosiasi dengan klub lain tanpa keterlibatan The Reds pada Januari 2025.
Even if Alexander-Arnold accepts an offer from another club, Liverpool can't prevent it. The club also didn't get a penny from the player's departure.
This is certainly a tough task for Michael Edwards to return to Anfield and is now the CEO of the club alongside Richard Hughes, the new sporting director.

The problem is not only Alexander-Arnold, but also Mohamed Salah and captain Virgil van Dijk. Their contract will also expire in 2025.
However, Salah is likely to be sold to a Saudi Arabian club. One of the clubs in the Pro Arab League wants to bring in the captain of the Egyptian national team. Meanwhile, Van Dijk seems to be retained.
