Reports this week claimed that Chelsea were favourites to sign him, but it seems that other clubs are ready to put up a fight.

Arsenal, Chelsea, Newcastle, Tottenham, Real Madrid and Bayern Munich are the clubs said to be interested in the player who has a £50 million release clause in his contract.

It is added by Florian Plattenberg that the clause can also be paid in three instalments, which would be attractive to Premier League clubs, given the PSR thoughts.

Real Madrid is reported to be the preference for Huijsen if they made an official move for him, but the offer of Champions League football is also reported to be a major consideration, with Liverpool able to offer that.

Journalist Fabrizio Romano has doubled down on claims from earlier this year that Trent Alexander-Arnold moving to Real Madrid is at the ‘final stages’.

The full-back was the Reds’ hero in last week’s 1-0 win against Leicester City at the King Power Stadium.

However, Romano has said that nothing has changes in regards to the player’s future.

Speaking on his Youtube channel, he said: “What I can tell you on Trent Alexander-Arnold is the situation is still exactly the same between Trent, Liverpool and Real Madrid.

The deal for Alexander-Arnold to Real Madrid is at the final stages.

Just waiting for the formal steps, just waiting to sign all the contracts, just waiting to complete all the documents.

“So that’s the direction of the story – Real Madrid.

At the moment no changes in the conversation or situation with Liverpool.

“It’s important to remind once again that Trent Alexander-Arnold is expected to join Real Madrid despite the social media stuff, the celebrations and all the rest.
