It's the End: Liverpool Closes the Renewal Immediately and Warns Real Madrid

Real Madrid, despite the arrival of the new year, is still keeping an eye on all the players they can transfer as free agents. The most interesting for the sports project and the generational change of the white team are Trent Alexander-Arnold and Alphonso Davies. However, only the transfer of Liverpool's '66' seems closer than ever.

So much so that Valdebebas offices are already preparing an offer to send to the right wing's camp as soon as possible. The information known these days brings the '66' red closer to the Bernabéu changing room for the 2025 summer, something the club wants to make a reality as soon as possible.

Kirkby offices aren't wasting time either, aware that Trent Alexander-Arnold isn't the only player who could leave Anfield Road as a free agent. Because the contracts of Virgil van Dijk and Mohamed Salah also end in the 2025 summer, and there's still no sign of renewal in any of those "cases".

It won't be on Real Madrid's part: the club has made it clear that those free-agent transfers aren't of interest. This is reflected in  David Ornstein's information. According to which Liverpool would have advanced in extending the contract of the Dutch defender and the Egyptian center-forward.

Transfer that fits perfectly

The journalist from The Athletic also makes clear the change in dynamics with the 'Alexander-Arnold case': things wouldn't be going as desired in Merseyside due to Madrid's influence. The interest of the white executives in acquiring his contract, as well as the competitive appeal the club presents, would have been too much for the red club's renewal.

The feeling in the white leadership is that the transfer of Trent Alexander-Arnold is getting closer. The efforts made in recent seasons would be about to offer the sought-after reward: securing a quality generational replacement for the right-back position.

The complicated situation of that position after Dani Carvajal's serious injury has forced this quick move in the market. Because Leganés's '2' will return in 2025, renewed until 2026; but with many doubts about his physical condition after the triple injury of his right knee. Likewise, the free-agent departure of Lucas Vázquez, hypothetically for 2025, would leave an intolerable gap.

The uncertainty of the right-back position after the departure of Curtis's '17' would be solved by placing Trent Alexander-Arnold as the more than strong competition for Dani Carvajal. Because the Spanish defender remains the undisputed choice in that position... until his retirement or Trent Alexander-Arnold himself indicates otherwise.
