As if it wasn’t bad enough that Liverpool will be losing Trent Alexander-Arnold to Real Madrid this summer, the Reds could well find themselves in the same situation next year.

Alexander-Arnold has already confirmed his decision to leave Anfield at the end of his contract, although a move to the Bernabeu could actually come even sooner.

Until any decision is made on that front, Alexander-Arnold will be set to leave Liverpool for nothing.



And, rather worryingly for Liverpool fans, the Frenchman is being linked with a move to Madrid.

According to Spanish outlet Marca, Real is once again waiting for a Liverpool player to run down his contract so that it can sign him for free, just like Alexander-Arnold.

Reports in Spain suggest Ibrahima Konate could follow Trent Alexander-Arnold to Real Madrid in 2026.

What’s more, the latest news coming and out of Arsenal might not be too welcome for Liverpool - and we’re not talking about Martin Zubimendi heading to North London.

The Athletic is reporting that the Gunners have now opened talks to extend William Saliba’s contract beyond its current end date in 2027.

Like Konate, Saliba has been linked with a move to Madrid, so a new deal for the Arsenal star might force the Spanish giant to focus its attention on Liverpool’s center-back instead, and as Alexander-Arnold has shown, once Real is interested, it can be hard for a player to turn them down.
