Alexander-Arnold, who has been with Liverpool since being a kid, is expected to pen a deal with the Spanish giants ahead of next season.

If the move goes through, it’s likely to put Arne Slot and the Reds on the back foot heading into the summer transfer window.

Not only will they have lost one of their best players, but they won’t have managed to bag a fee for his signature either.

Despite these worries, Liverpool could go some way to filling the gap left behind by Alexander-Arnold if they pursue Juventus ace Andrea Cambiaso.

The Italian, who joined Juventus in 2022, has established himself as one of Europe’s best fullbacks and is capable of playing on either side of defence.

As such, he’s likely to appeal to Slot, as Liverpool are said to be eyeing additions on both defensive flanks this summer.

But on top of that, by landing the 24-year-old’s services, Liverpool could only put a dent in Premier League rival Manchester City’s transfer business, given Pep Guardiola’s side have also been credited with interest.

The 2023 European champions are likely to part ways with Kyle Walker during the offseason, forcing them into the market for defensive reinforcements as well.

However, unlike champions-elect Liverpool, City’s spot in next year’s Champions League is under threat, meaning the Merseyside outfit could have an upper hand when it comes to negotiations.

That’s if Cambiaso is even interested in making the move at all.

He is only focused on Juventus and performing at his best there.
