Florentino Backs out on Alexander-Arnold: a Barça Transfer for the Full-back

Barça wants to compete with Real Madrid for a transfer

"Barcelona will try to compete with Real Madrid for Diogo Dalot, if he wants to leave Manchester United," say CaughtOffside . The media outlet continues to insist on the interest of the Merengue club in the Portuguese footballer.

Various media outlets have reported on the alleged interest of the Madrid team in Dalot, but at RealMadridConfidencial we still have other information . The club's main target for the right-back is Alexander-Arnold . They hope to secure his signature in January.

That doesn't mean that Madrid aren't studying other alternatives in case the Englishman changes his mind . After what happened with Yoro, it's logical that the club wants to have a plan B in case Arnold falls through.

He is convinced

The Liverpool player is very excited about the Madrid project . He believes that they are building the best team in the world, and he doesn't want to miss the opportunity to be part of it. He will compete for the position with Dani Carvajal, who will return from his injury.

Some have suggested that the transfer could happen before the winter transfer window, but that is almost impossible. Liverpool are competing for every title and Arnold is an undisputed starter . However, if they don't want him to leave on a free transfer in the summer, they will have to sell him in January.

Another thing is whether they hope to convince him to renew or whether they prioritize success during this season over the money they could receive from Real Madrid.

The Madrid club would be willing to pay his transfer fee in January, but not at any price . Given the player's contractual situation, Liverpool don't have the strength to ask for too much money for the operation.

A historic project

All the Merengue players are very excited about the squad that Real Madrid is putting together . They haven't started this season in the best possible way, but no one has any doubts that they will end up competing for all the titles.

For this reason, the club is receiving multiple offers , because everyone wants to be part of what could be an unforgettable decade at the best club in the world. For this reason, Madrid has to be increasingly selective.
