Fabrizio Romano has provided his latest Trent Alexander-Arnold update amid renewed Real Madrid links recently.

This comes after Miguel Delaney has reported that the Liverpool vice-captain is one of the targets that the Spanish giants are eyeing in a Premier League raid.

The 25-year-old’s current contract, which he signed in 2021, keeps him at Anfield until 2025.

This deal made him one of Liverpool’s top earners, alongside key players like Mohamed Salah and Virgil van Dijk.

Alexander-Arnold remains an essential player for Liverpool, and given his young age of 25, the club wants to ensure that his best years are spent at Anfield.

Discussions around a contract extension are set to take place soon, with Liverpool keen to avoid the risk of losing him to another club.

It has been reported that Jude Bellingham could convince Alexander-Arnold of a mov to the Spanish capital, particularly with the close relationship the two players.

Real Madrid’s potential interest underscores the importance of Liverpool moving quickly to secure his long-term future.

But if Romano’s latest update is anything to go by, Liverpool fans should have nothing to worry about.

What did Fabrizio Romano say about Trent Alexander-Arnold?

The Italian transfer guru has always maintained that Real Madrid interest has been interest and nothing more, with Romano even going as far as to say it’s “normal” that Los Blancos are sniffing around the 25-year-old:

“I keep getting a lot of questions about Liverpool and their situation with three star players – Mohamed Salah, Trent Alexander-Arnold and Virgil van Dijk – all out of contract at Anfield in 2025,” Romano wrote in his Daily Briefing.

“I can guarantee that for all three players the situation is the same, and that is that their priority is Liverpool, and conversations will follow.”

“Let’s be patient and respect the parties negotiating and the timing of it all.”

“There will be negotiations and then we’ll see what happens, but for now I can guarantee that nothing has been decided on Liverpool’s side or on the players’ side, they are still taking their time.”

“As I said in March earlier this year, Real Madrid keep following the situation of Alexander-Arnold, but this is very normal.”

“Real Madrid are always following top players, and especially if they’re out of contract soon – this is their strategy and we know it very well.”

As one of the most gifted players in his position, his commitment is crucial for Liverpool’s ongoing rebuild under new head coach Arne Slot.

By securing his future, Liverpool would not only retain a key player but also send a strong message about the club’s ambition in the upcoming seasons.
