José Félix Díaz Announces Updates on Alexander-Arnold's Transfer by Real Madrid

Real Madrid seems to have increasingly more ties with Trent Alexander-Arnold. Liverpool's '66', according to reports from various media outlets, has reportedly agreed to join the white club. But without specifying when this transfer would definitively occur. Regardless, the Valdebebas offices have a clear roadmap for these weeks.

The information published by the newspaper MARCA makes it clear that the executives led by Florentino Pérez are extremely interested in securing the British defender's transfer during the current winter market. The initial attempts to achieve this goal have failed spectacularly for two reasons. Not only because the red entity will continue trying to renew one of its top stars.

The transfer proposed by Real Madrid to take Trent Alexander-Arnoldfrom Anfield Road mid-season, a maximum of 20 million euros, in England is considered insufficient. Despite the rejections received and the natural reluctance to transfer during the winter market, the Meringue team is pursuing his transfer with determination. José Félix Díaz insists on this idea in his latest publication.

The journalist from MARCA describes how the Meringue bosses will seek to complete Alexander-Arnold's transfer during this winter market, approaching the English board once again with an offer. The excellent institutional relationship both clubs of the European soccer elite have, however, doesn't seem to be enough incentive to accept an offer set at 20 million euros.

Standoff

While it's true that Real Madrid would like to sign Trent Alexander-Arnold right now, they won't do it at an out-of-market price. The player ends his current contract with Liverpool in five months and has a value of 75 million euros. Based on these estimates, from the noble area of Anfield Road, they consider that the player's departure would be above the maximum figure proposed by the merengue leaders.

The situation seems to have stalled: Real Madrid isn't very willing to offer more money to Liverpool, a team that doesn't intend to yield to a request they consider insufficient. Meanwhile, time is ticking... but fortunately, it's doing so in favor of the merengue interests.

José Félix Díaz recalls that "the full-back isn't going to continue playing at Anfield", a decision of which Liverpool's leaders would be informed. "The English club's leaders the have known since mid-December that the decision made by the player is to play at Madrid", confirms the journalist.

The only reason that leads Real Madrid to attempt the transfer of Trent Alexander-Arnold in January is the delicate situation at right-back. Without Carvajal, seriously injured, and with Vázquez heavily criticized by the fans, there are barely any reliable alternatives in the team coached by Carlo Ancelotti. The Reggiolo coach, to address this issue, must place Fede Valverde in that position for the most important matches of the season.
