Confirmed, Alexander-Arnold Announces His Signing with Real Madrid This Summer

One of the surprises of the last few hours has undoubtedly been the official announcement from Trent Alexander-Arnold. The '66' of Liverpool, just a few days after the red team was crowned Premier League champion, has released a video. In that content, the footballer effectively bids farewell to Liverpool, announcing his departure from the English club at the end of the current season.

Apart from all the reactions caused in the wake of that decision, especially among the fans of the Merseyside entity, there is another striking aspect: the player's future. Because in his video published on social media, as well as the entry on Liverpool's website, it is not indicated what the destination of a highly sought-after footballer currently will be. Everything points to his destination, as several sports media have reported, being Real Madrid.

Trent Alexander-Arnold's farewell to Liverpool's fans, as well as the club itself, through that famous video brings the resolution of this saga ever closer. Not in vain, Real Madrid has positioned itself as one of his main offers for several months, when Dani Carvajal suffered the triple tear in his right knee.

The discreet performance of Lucas Vázquez during the current soccer season increased the need to acquire the '66' of Liverpool. This transfer, after this official announcement of Trent Alexander-Arnold's farewell, would be rapidly approaching the offices of Valdebebas, putting an end to the transfer market saga.

Closer Than Ever

The addition of Trent Alexander-Arnold to Santiago Bernabéu locker room would help solve one of the major dilemmas of the merengue first team this season. In addition to the absence of Toni Kroos in the midfield, the depleted Madrid defense has been the worst area of the white team given the constant injuries. The lack of personnel, many commentators agree, would have hindered Real Madrid's competitive possibilities this season.

That's why from the offices of Valdebebas they would have launched for the signing of Trent Alexander-Arnold. In his video published through social media, the footballer assures that he will never stop being a Liverpool fan... even though that farewell brings him considerably closer to Real Madrid, one of the red entity's most direct European rivals.

Be that as it may, Trent Alexander-Arnold's farewell activates his signing for Real Madrid for the next season. The only unknown, besides knowing when the incorporation will be made official, is the competitive moment in which the right-back will be available: the Club World Cup is not ruled out.

However, Real Madrid would have to disburse a minimal amount to force the team change... since Trent Alexander-Arnold's contract with Liverpool ends on June 30, 2025. By then, the new category competition organized by FIFA is already underway and the roster of participating clubs can't be modified.
