A January departure for Trent Alexander-Arnold appears almost impossible. With Liverpool competing for a historic quadruple, the team's Premier League lead, and Alexander-Arnold's deep-rooted connection to the club and its fans, a mid-season move is highly improbable.
Although his contract expires on June 30, and he has yet to agree to renewal terms, Alexander-Arnold's dedication to Liverpool seems unwavering. Born and raised in West Derby, just minutes from Anfield, the right-back has spent nearly two decades with the club, rising through its ranks to become a cornerstone of its success.
Negotiations for Alexander-Arnold's renewal have stalled, with the player reportedly dissatisfied with Liverpool's offer. Currently earning £180,000 per week as the club's third-highest-paid player, he trails only Virgil Van Dijk and Mohamed Salah. Despite this, Alexander-Arnold believes his contributions merit a more significant salary increase.
Real Madrid has shown strong interest in securing the England international, who is now free to negotiate with clubs outside the UK. However, any move is likely to wait until the summer, as Liverpool's pursuit of multiple trophies makes his mid-season exit implausible.
Under manager Arne Slot, Liverpool is poised for a season to remember. The Reds lead the Premier League by four points with a game in hand, remain undefeated in the Champions League group stage, and are advancing in both domestic cup competitions. Alexander-Arnold's potential departure would leave the squad short-handed, as injuries have limited backup options like Conor Bradley.
Moreover, a Premier League title this year would carry special significance for Alexander-Arnold. It would be his second league triumph and the first he could celebrate with fans in a packed Anfield, a moment denied during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020.
