In a significant development, Real Madrid are planning to sign Trent Alexander-Arnold from Liverpool before the Club World Cup begins. The English defender has confirmed his departure from Liverpool when his contract expires later this summer, and the 26-year-old is expected to join the Spanish club as a free agent. The Club World Cup is scheduled to start 16 days before Alexander-Arnold's contract expiration. Real Madrid have approached Liverpool with a proposal to release the full-back early for the tournament. The deal could involve a fee of around €1m, or Real Madrid might pay the wages owed to Alexander-Arnold by Liverpool. Negotiations are reportedly progressing amicably, and this move presents an opportunity for Liverpool to recover some funds for a valuable player they would otherwise lose for free.
