Liverpool's right-back is just 98 days away from being able to negotiate with foreign clubs as his contract expires in the summer. Top clubs from around Europe are closely monitoring the world-class talent as they prepare to make their move.
Ex Liverpool star Glen Johnson has spoken on Trent Alexander-Arnold and his possible move to Real Madrid which could be decided with a conversation with Jude Bellingham.AdvertisementAdvertisementThe 25-year-old has been heavily linked with Madrid for some time now with many believing that Bellingham could be the one to persuade the defender to join the Spanish giants.
Former Liverpool defender Glen Johnson spoke to Betfred about the possible move and how he believes that the two English stars could unite in La Liga.
“The club is 95% of the pull itself but of course, if he speaks to Jude and Jude tells him how great it is there, then that could make his decision final.
“Jude could be the final piece in the puzzle when it comes to Trent making his decision, but I believe Trent would be up for the deal anyway, regardless of whether Jude is there or not.”
The pair spent time off in the summer holidaying in the United States and have become close friends whilst on England duty in the past few years which may have led to a conversation about the stars future at Liverpool.
Johnson added that at Madrid, trophies are a given which is something Alexander-Arnold spoke about recently in his search for more success and achievements.
“If you go to Real Madrid, you’re guaranteed trophies. That’s a fact. Liverpool aren’t guaranteed trophies, but they’re very capable of winning them.
“Real Madrid are guaranteed to win things so for Trent, it’s never going to be about money at that level because everybody’s paid very well, so if it’s trophies that he wants, then Real Madrid will guarantee that, but Liverpool fans would love to see him stay and fight for trophies at Anfield.”
