WHAT HAPPENED?

<p><a href="https://www.marca.com/futbol/real-madrid/2024/12/27/liverpool-alexander-arnold-quiere-jugar-real-madrid.html" target="_blank"><em>Marca</em></a><em> </em>has now revealed that Alexander-Arnold has let Liverpool know that he does not plan to stay and extend his contract at Anfield this season. The England international reportedly decided to tell the club in advance that he will not continue as the Reds bosses wanted to find a final resolution to his contract situation before the start of the January transfer window.</p>
