Trent Alexander-Arnold’s time at Liverpool is coming to an end, but his departure to Real Madrid won’t be entirely free.
While the Englishman is set to join the Spanish giants for the Club World Cup, Liverpool is demanding a financial compensation for releasing him before his contract expires.
Although Alexander-Arnold has been a key player for Liverpool, his relationship with the fans has soured, especially after his decision to move to Madrid. The move comes as a surprise, and the Englishman has faced backlash from some Reds supporters, calling it a “betrayal.”
Financial Request from Liverpool
Despite his contract ending on June 30, Liverpool insists on receiving 5 million euros to release Alexander-Arnold a month early, allowing him to join Real Madrid for the prestigious tournament. According to El Chiringuito, the deal is likely to go ahead if Madrid pays this amount in the coming days.
While the sum is significant, it appears reasonable given the caliber of one of the best right-backs in the world, who is just a month away from becoming a free agent.
