Shocking Statement: He Wants Alexander-Arnold Out of Liverpool
Trent Alexander-Arnold’s contract with Liverpool expires at the end of the season.
While Mohamed Salah and Virgil van Dijk have been open about their future, Alexander-Arnold has remained silent. According to him, this is a deliberate choice.
Keeping His Cards Close
– I’ve been at the club for 20 years now. I’ve signed four or five contract extensions, and none of them played out in public – and this one won’t either, Alexander-Arnold told BBC Sport in September last year.
Although he remains tight-lipped, speculation about his future is rampant. Spanish media claim that the England international already has an agreement with Real Madrid, though no credible sources have confirmed this.

Carragher: “One Liverpool Player Wants Him Gone”
With less than five months left on his contract, Alexander-Arnold’s future is uncertain. However, former Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher claims that one player in the club would prefer him to leave.
– There is only one player connected to Liverpool who doesn’t want Trent Alexander-Arnold to sign a new contract, and that’s Conor Bradley, Carragher told Sky Sports.

Hungry for Trophies
A product of Liverpool’s academy, Alexander-Arnold has been a key player for several seasons. He has made it clear what motivates him the most.
– The most important thing for me is winning trophies. I am a player who is driven by winning and being among the best. If you are an elite athlete, you do everything to win, he said.
– Last season, we came close to the title and won a cup. The quadruple was a possibility for a while. This season, we look really strong. It’s still early, but we need stability and to keep winning, he added.
