Real Madrid prepared to tease Liverpool with £85m incentive in efforts to snare Trent – report

Real Madrid is reportedly looking to tempt Liverpool into selling Trent Alexander-Arnold. According to Spanish outlet Sport, instead of waiting for the 26-year-old’s contract to expire next summer for a free transfer, the Champions League holders might expedite a move in January due to Dani Carvajal’s knee injury.

 

While James Pearce dismissed these rumors, Spanish media continues to report on the situation.

 

Real Madrid is said to be preparing a modest offer of around €25 million (£20.9 million) for Trent in January. Aware that this amount is unlikely to convince Liverpool, they may include Aurelien Tchouameni in a cash-plus-player deal. The French midfielder, who was signed from Monaco for €100 million (£85 million) in 2022, is seen as expendable given his recent performances. However, Real Madrid has ruled out offering Rodrygo in this potential deal.

 

Real Madrid may be overestimating their chances. Even considering Liverpool’s previous interest in Tchouameni, it’s improbable they would accept such a low offer for a vital player like Trent. If this proposal is indeed being considered by the Bernabeu hierarchy, it shows a lack of respect for Liverpool’s valuation of their key player.

 

We hope Trent will soon agree to a contract extension with Liverpool, putting an end to speculation about his future so that we can focus on his contributions on the field. As for the latest reports from Spain, they should be taken with skepticism, especially during this international break outside the transfer window.
