For several months, one of the biggest rumors surrounding Real Madrid was the signing of Trent Alexander-Arnold. Looking to improve the performance of the right-back position, Real Madrid set their sights on the Liverpool player to fill this role. While no official announcement has been made, everything points to the transfer being close to becoming a reality.

With his contract nearing its end, Arnold's arrival at Real Madrid would be completely free. However, Real Madrid has made a particular request to Liverpool regarding this operation. Still having to compete in the Club World Cup, Real Madrid has asked Liverpool to release Arnold before the end of his contract.

Without making any financial offer, Real Madrid only hopes that Liverpool will allow Arnold's departure without any issues. A situation that, of course, seems complicated to happen but has Real Madrid's extreme trust.

Real Madrid's offer

After 9 seasons at Liverpool, Trent Alexander-Arnold made the decision not to renew his contract with the club. Despite being the team of his entire life and an icon for the fans, Arnold is determined to make the leap to Real Madrid. A move that would greatly strengthen a merengue squad that hasn't had the best of seasons.

Despite Real Madrid showing patience with Arnold's signing, the Club World Cup has caused a change of plans. With the tournament starting on June 14, Real Madrid seeks to have Arnold before the end of his contract with Liverpool.

With this ending on June 30, the request made by Real Madrid is more than understandable. The only problem is, given Arnold's importance at Liverpool, whether the English club will agree to allow the departure of one of its stars without receiving anything in return.

Waiting for Liverpool's decision

Still having time before the start of the Club World Cup, Real Madrid hopes to receive a response as soon as possible. Trusting that their proposal will be accepted, Real Madrid must prepare in case the English club refuses to release Arnold.
