Real Madrid: Trent Alexander-Arnold shuts the door on Liverpool and Arsenal!

Trent Alexander-Arnold’s future at Real Madrid has become an increasingly interesting transfer story, with Liverpool and Arsenal both monitoring his situation ahead of the January window.

The 27-year-old defender has struggled to establish himself as Real Madrid’s undisputed first-choice right-back since arriving from Liverpool in 2025. His limited playing time has naturally generated speculation about a possible return to England.

Alexander-Arnold does not want to leave Real Madrid

However, the latest report suggests that Alexander-Arnold has no intention of leaving Madrid during the January transfer window. Although intermediaries have reportedly explored potential destinations, the defender remains focused on succeeding in Spain.

The arrival of Denzel Dumfries from Inter Milan has increased competition for the position. Alexander-Arnold has reportedly featured in only five matches so far this season, starting two league games.

Liverpool remain interested because they have struggled to find a long-term replacement for their former academy product. Arsenal are also monitoring the situation amid uncertainty surrounding Ben White.

For now, however, Alexander-Arnold appears determined to remain at Real Madrid and fight for his place rather than seek an immediate transfer.
