Roy Keane insists Liverpool "will be fine" without Trent Alexander-Arnold as the right-back heads towards the exit door.
They've reportedly tabled an offer to lure the Liverpool star to the Spanish capital.
Despite all the talk surrounding the 26-year-old Keane maintains that better players have chosen to quit Liverpool over the years - the likes of Luis Suarez - and the club have been able to move on without them.
Alexander-Arnold's quality has been well documented, especially in the final third with Liverpool's No.66 among the most creative right-backs the Premier League has ever seen, but Keane doesn't see his impending exit as anything alarming.
He said on Sky Sports : "It is amazing, we talk about Trent who is a fantastic player but it is as if the world is coming to an end if he leaves.
He has done brilliantly, been a good servant, he has been a brilliant player for Liverpool but I am pretty sure Liverpool will survive.
Better players have left Liverpool than Trent and Liverpool have done okay.

"You have to accept, supporters have to accept, that you are supporting the club.
So as brilliant as Trent is, Liverpool will be fine.”
Plenty see Conor Bradley as a ready made replacement for Alexander-Arnold.
He is another academy product and has impressed when given an opportunity, but he has ultimately remained behind his team-mate in the pecking order.

Liverpool started with Bradley at right-back for the trip to Leicester whilst Alexander-Arnold had to make do with a spot on the bench before appearing and quickly making an impact.
