Liverpool are undeniably the best club in the world at the moment, with their sights firmly set on an extraordinary quadruple. Their recent victory over Southampton has further solidified their dominance, placing them comfortably atop the Premier League table, eight points clear of Manchester City. However, despite their glowing form, a significant concern lingers—the contracts of three key superstars are set to expire at the end of the season.
Liverpool’s vice-captain is at the heart of growing transfer speculation, with Real Madrid reportedly pushing him to make a decision soon. His contract expires next summer, which would allow him to sign a pre-contract with foreign clubs as early as January 1. This looming deadline has sparked concern among Liverpool fans, particularly as the 26-year-old continues to be linked with a move to the Spanish giants.

Sky Sports’ Kaveh Solhekol explained that Real Madrid’s interest in Alexander-Arnold may not be permanent, as the Spanish giants are always exploring alternatives, especially with Dani Carvajal out for the season and Vazquez rarely impressing at right-back. “If they want you, it’s now or never,” Solhekol said, highlighting the appeal of the world’s most successful football club.
Despite the ongoing uncertainty, Liverpool remains confident. Reports from TeamTalk indicate the club is prepared to offer Alexander-Arnold a record-breaking contract worth over £400,000 per week, making him the Premier League’s highest-paid player. This move would demonstrate the club’s commitment to keeping him.
Alexander-Arnold himself has spoken highly of Liverpool’s new manager, Arne Slot, praising his attention to detail and crediting him for helping improve his game, Playing under the new coach and solidifying his legacy as a club legend must be high on the Scouser’s bucket list, and this ambition could be the key factor in preventing him from leaving Liverpool.
