<p>The England international has been <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/real-madrid-contact-trent-alexander-arnold-los-blancos-step-up-efforts-land-liverpool-star/blt40c98eb2404b5c10" target="_blank">linked with a move to the Spanish giants for some time</a> and speculation over his future continues to intensify with <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/liverpool-slammed-failing-tie-trent-alexander-arnold-down-contract-real-madrid-nice-option/bltcae6210b7f77bd1e" target="_blank">his Liverpool contract expiring at the end of the season</a>.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Liverpool hope to convince the 26-year-old to sign an extension, but they face intense competition as <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5847668/2024/10/16/trent-alexander-arnold-real-madrid-liverpool/" target="_blank"><em>The Athletic</em></a> reports that he is Madrid's top target. However, a move will only be possible if he lets his deal at Anfield run down.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Alexander-Arnold is not the only option on Madrid's list at the moment, however, as the report adds that Tottenham's Pedro Porro, Bayer Leverkusen star Jeremie Frimpong and Sevilla full-back Juanlu are also being considered.</p>

DID YOU KNOW?

<p>The Spanish champions will be closely monitoring Alexander-Arnold's situation as the season wears on before he is free to start negotiating with other clubs as of January.</p>
