Despite recent speculation suggesting Trent Alexander-Arnold might reconsider leaving Liverpool, he’s still widely expected to depart at the end of the 2024/25 season when his current contract expires.
Real Madrid remains the frontrunner to sign the England international, potentially securing him ahead of the Club World Cup. Some online rumors have hinted that the right-back could be having second thoughts, but no concrete developments have confirmed this.
Although Alexander-Arnold has remained visibly involved in Liverpool’s title celebrations—understandable given his local roots and the pride of winning a second Premier League title with his childhood club—it’s still believed that a move to Spain is imminent.
During the club’s recent celebrations, the vice-captain was seen speaking with Liverpool’s principal owner, John W Henry, which some believe may relate to a possible farewell. There’s speculation he’s been encouraged to be transparent with fans about his future plans, though no formal announcement has been made.
According to Lewis Steele of the *Daily Mail*, the expectation remains that Alexander-Arnold will leave, despite recent social media chatter suggesting otherwise. If he does, Liverpool may need to sign a new right-back, as relying solely on Conor Bradley—whose injury record raises some concerns—might be risky.
While hope lingers that another title win could influence his decision, fans should prepare themselves for the likely outcome: Trent Alexander-Arnold joining Real Madrid.
