Prior to the forthcoming summer transfer window, Liverpool is purportedly open to negotiating a potential deal with Real Madrid involving the exchange of Trent Alexander-Arnold and Rodrygo Goes.
As per reports from Defensa Central, Liverpool has contemplated the prospect of acquiring Rodrygo Goes in exchange for Trent Alexander-Arnold.
Real Madrid has expressed interest in the 25-year-old right-back, given Liverpool’s anticipated quest for a successor to Mohamed Salah. Nevertheless, the feasibility of such a transaction remains complex.
Florentino Perez, in his pursuit to bolster Real Madrid’s roster with a new right-back ahead of the summer transfer window, is purportedly considering Alexander-Arnold as a potential target, according to the report.
Real Madrid hold interest in the Liverpool star
The star player of Liverpool Football Club unquestionably aligns with the club’s strategic vision and stands out as a viable long-term replacement for Dani Carvajal. In pursuit of excellence, the renowned Spanish club is actively seeking out top-tier talent.
Furthermore, a report highlights the imminent expiration of Alexander-Arnold’s contract with Anfield, despite the right-back’s expressed interest in securing a new deal amidst speculation regarding his potential departure.
It is evident that the right-back is in a precarious position as he approaches the final year of his contract with Liverpool, commencing in the upcoming summer.
Liverpool, anticipating the departure of key player Mohamed Salah, has emerged as one of the interested parties in acquiring the services of Rodrygo.
Liverpool could lose Salah in the summer
Salah’s potential transfer to the Saudi Pro League has prompted consideration within the Premier League club regarding Rodrygo as a prospective replacement for the Egyptian forward.
Consequently, speculation suggests that Liverpool may have initiated discussions with Real Madrid regarding a bold swap deal proposition.
Should such a transfer materialize, it is purported that Rodrygo would relocate to Anfield, while the 25-year-old Alexander-Arnold would transition to the Bernabeu.
Reportedly, Rodrygo’s underwhelming season and the potential arrival of Kylian Mbappe at Real Madrid may contribute to his potential departure from the Spanish club.
Although Alexander-Arnold could attract interest from the La Liga leaders, it is improbable that they would relinquish their dynamic winger in exchange for the English defender.
Rodrygo’s future at Real Madrid remains uncertain, as it is speculated that only a substantial offer from another club would prompt consideration of his departure from the Brazilian’s current club.
