This season, Real Madrid continues to face a crisis of force. In particular, the long-term injury of captain Dani Carvajal has left coach Ancelotti without enough good personnel in the right-back position. Therefore, there is information that Hoang Gia wants to recruit Trent Alexander-Arnold, the mainstay defender of Liverpool.
Trent has been considered the world's top right-back for many years. This season, the England star has played 18 matches for Liverpool, scoring 1 goal and 4 assists. However, Trent Alexander-Arnold's contract with The Kop only runs until June 2025. To keep their right-back, Liverpool plan to offer a new contract with a total salary of up to 78 million pounds.
However, pundit Richard Keys has urged Liverpool to sell Trent, especially after his poor performance in the recent 2-2 draw with Man United. Keys was quoted by The Mirror: “Let’s talk about Trent Alexander-Arnold. There’s not much more to say. His performances have shown that Liverpool should take £20m from Madrid and settle this transfer saga. He should go and be done with it.
Never mind all the nonsense and misjudgments from Liverpool pundits. They should have known better about this deal. Trust me, Liverpool's season will not be affected by the departure of such a defender.
I'm not saying he's not good enough, I just think his skill set suits Real Madrid. Defending has always been Trent's weakness and there's no point arguing."
In 334 appearances for Liverpool, Trent Alexander-Arnold has shown great attacking ability with 20 goals and 85 assists. However, he has been criticized for his poor defensive ability and frequent elementary errors.
