Real Madrid Confidencial Alexander-Arnold Steps: Madrid Closes the Transfer and Will be a Madrid in January
The white team is going to finalize the transfer of the wing in a few days, and has made the definitive move
With just a few days left before the winter market opens, Real Madrid has already made a key move. They've been working for a while to try to secure the transfer of Alexander Arnold. The definitive step has been taken for the defender to become a Madrid player starting on the 1st.
Liverpool has tried to renew his contract several times, with offers that have always been rejected. Now they might have made a final attempt that could be decisive. Especially because Alexander Arnold has already communicated his decision according to José Félix Díaz.
The leaders of the red team already know that Arnold's intention is not to renew and to leave. He's clear that his new destination is going to be Real Madrid, and he doesn't consider other possibilities. Therefore, he'll let his contract expire to arrive at Bernabéu as a free agent.
Additionally, Liverpool wanted to solve his situation, for better or worse, before January 1st. They're aware that Van Dijk and Salah are in the same situation and can't take all the risks. Therefore, with Arnold, they already know that renewing his contract will be impossible.
The key person to convince Alexander Arnold to sign for Real Madrid
Alexander Arnold is a very beloved player at Liverpool, important in the team's successes. Also, he's English and came from the youth academy, making him special to the fans. However, he's decided to embark on a new adventure, and this will be at Real Madrid.
The essential person in the decision the defender made to sign for the white team has been Bellingham. They've been great friends for a long time, and Jude has shared his experience with him. That has been decisive for him to want to try his luck in the Spanish capital like his national team teammate.
Starting January 1st, Real Madrid will sign the pre-contract with Alexander Arnold to secure him. However, his arrival isn't expected in the winter market and will be during the summer. It doesn't seem that Liverpool is reconsidering his transfer even though he'll leave for free.
