Report: Liverpool now think they know what Trent Alexander-Arnold is going to do as Bayern enter the race
Today at 07:30 AM
Trent Alexander-Arnold is one of three Liverpool players currently set to leave for nothing at the end of this Premier League season.
The England international’s contract is due to expire alongside Mohamed Salah and Virgil van Dijk, with Alexander-Arnold attracting strong interest from Real Madrid as the European giants look to make the defender their latest superstar signing.
Madrid aren’t alone in their interest in Alexander-Arnold, though, with Bayern Munich now believed to be in the race for the defender as Vincent Kompany looks to find a replacement for Liverpool-linked Joshua Kimmich, who could leave the Allianz Arena for nothing in the summer.
And Liverpool now think they know what Alexander-Arnold is going to do this summer amid Bayern’s interest in the fullback.
Liverpool have accepted that Alexander-Arnold is leaving this summer
According to TeamTalk, Liverpool have grown to accept that Alexander-Arnold is leaving the club this summer, with Madrid president Florentino Perez growing in confidence in bringing the England international to Spain.
With Liverpool fans serenading Alexander-Arnold against Tottenham last night in their 1-0 League Cup loss in north London, it appears that supporters are once again back on the defender’s side after the 26-year-old’s nightmare performance on Sunday against Manchester United.

Indeed, Liverpool are still in contention to win a historic quadruple with the Reds leading the Premier League and UEFA Champions League standings and still looking like favourites to win the League Cup even after their loss to Tottenham, with their FA Cup journey starting this weekend.
And for Alexander-Arnold, the defender will want to end his Liverpool career winning as many pieces of silverware was possible, with the fullback already claiming everything there is to win already with the Reds.
Liverpool need to officially clear the air on Alexander-Arnold’s future
Everyone and their mother seems to believe that Alexander-Arnold is joining Madrid this summer, with Liverpool only now joining the part somewhat incredible given how obvious it has looked for some weeks now.
And for the Reds, they must now take the step to clear the air with Alexander-Arnold and what is actually going on with his future, with an official word to supporters and the world something that could benefit all parties involved.
Indeed, no Liverpool fan will berate or criticise Alexander-Arnold for wanting to join arguably the biggest club in football in Madrid, yet supporters would respect an official comment from the player or the Anfield side on what is going on with the ongoing situation.
