Real Madrid are still analyzing the market with the intention of strengthening for next season. The priority is to bring in players to strengthen the defensive line and there are several clear candidates, including Trent Alexander-Arnold. The full-back's contract with Liverpool ends on 30 June and he could arrive on a free transfer, a case in which José Félix Díaz has provided updates.
On journalist Rubén Martín's Twitch channel, José Félix Díaz stated: " Real Madrid are still looking at the right-back issue. They are waiting to see what happens with Alexander-Arnold. It is an option that is very close to being tied down. We will see if it can be done in January, I don't rule it out ."
Despite Alexander-Arnold's contract ending on June 30, it seems that Real Madrid would be interested in bringing him forward immediately . The problems in the defensive line, especially after Carvajal's injury, have opened up a panorama that Florentino Pérez intends to solve with the English defender. However, it is equally true that Liverpool have shown themselves reluctant to negotiate.
The rumors continue about the future of Trent Alexander-Arnold, who seems to have only two options on the table . One of them is to renew with Liverpool, and the other is to go to Real Madrid. Florentino has no doubts and believes that the Englishman is a player who adapts perfectly to the current needs of Santiago Bernabéu side.
José Félix Díaz Announces News with Alexander-Arnold and Real Madrid: 'He Is...'
During his recent visit to Liverpool, Florentino Pérez tried to negotiate with the club's owners to bring forward the plans . In exchange, he offered financial compensation to offset the loss of a player who will leave for free five months later.
The problem is that Liverpool are having a spectacular season, leading the Premier League table and eight points ahead of Manchester City.
In these circumstances it seems difficult to get one of Liverpool's most valuable players out of the contract. The normal thing would be for them to want to keep him at all costs, although the president of Real Madrid will try.
José Félix Díaz has been blunt in his latest information, pointing out that Alexander-Arnold is the priority for the right flank and the option "is very close to being tied down." We will have to wait to find out what news is being prepared soon at Real Madrid.
