JAKARTA - Trent Alexander-Arnold has not verbally approved a precontract to join Real Madrid at the end of the season.

Reports in Spain that said there was an agreement are understood to deviate from reality.

The 26-year-old right-back will no longer expire on Anfield in June 2025 and is free to negotiate with foreign clubs on precontract agreements.

Liverpool rejected an approach from Real Madrid before the transfer window opened.

The latest news reports that Alexander-Arnold is also still tough in verbal negotiations with Los Blancos.

Previously, it was known that Alexander-Arnold had expressed his frustration because he had not agreed on the extension of the contract at Liverpool.

This situation was then exploited by Real Madrid, who was in a crisis with defenders. They began to show interest and then took a verbal approach with representatives of Alexander-Arnold.

The unclear future condition had made Alexander-Arnold's appearance decline and finally had an impact on his appearance.

When Liverpool drew 2-2 against Manchester United in the Premier League on January 5, 2025, Alexander-Arnold became the target of criticism, both from supporters and the UK football pundit.

Alexander-Arnold became the culprit for Manchester United's two goals so they had to be replaced in the 86th minute.

Arne Slot then backed him up in the semi-finals of the Carabao Cup's first leg against Tottenham Hotspur, January 9, 2025.

Alexander-Arnold were just fielded as substitutes in the 60th minute of the match which ended in the 0-1 defeat.

However, Alexander-Arnold's condition is rising again now. He started again in the FA Cup Third Round against Accrington Stanley.

In that 4-0 win, the right-back even contributed one goal even though he only played an hour.

Most recently, Alexander-Arnold played full in their 1-1 draw against Nottingham Forest in the Premier League, January 15, 2025.
