There is mounting speculation regarding the future of Liverpool’s Trent Alexander-Arnold.
Real Madrid are reportedly keen to sign the talented England international, and with only a year left on his contract, Liverpool might reluctantly sell.
The Reds won’t want to lose their right-back, but if he wants to go, then they will want a lot of money as compensation.
Reports suggest that Liverpool will want at least £80 million for Trent if Real Madrid are seriously wanting him.

Trent is a terrific player, but with new manager Arne Slot coming in, the Liverpool defender might feel it’s the right time to move on?
There were times last season that the Scouser didn’t look interested in defending as his body language showed at times, and suggested that he is wanting to play in midfield that many people suggest is his best position.
If Liverpool were to let Alexander-Arnold leave, then the money would be valuable for Slot to bring in his own players.
The breakthrough of young Conor Bradley and the experienced Joe Gomez would provide good cover if Trent was to leave regardless if the new manager would want to replace him.
Like most Liverpool supporters, I want Trent to stay, but everyone has their price.

I can’t take you seriously admitting you’d be happy for him to leave for the right price.
he is a generational talent, and efforts should be made to keep him at anfield for his entire career.
No one should be envisaging him leaving unless he comes out and categorically says he wants out.
