( Doomai )Trent Alexander-Arnold continues to avoid questions over his future but Sky Sports’ Gary Neville says the Liverpool star will have to make a definitive announcement next week. Doomai
Liverpool are set to win the Premier League title if Arsenal lose to Crystal Palace on Wednesday or the Reds beat Spurs at Anfield next weekend and Neville says Alexander-Arnold will have to answer that question by then. The
assist-laden right-back has been heavily linked with a move to Real Madrid with his Liverpool contract due to expire in the summer.
“He didn’t answer the question about his contract. He gave an interview at the end of the game (against Leicester) where I believe he said he didn’t want to talk about it anymore so he postponed it,” Neville told The Gary Neville Podcast.
“But there will come a point next Sunday when he can’t avoid it anymore. “
Because Liverpool’s season is over, they have won the league. There’s nothing left to say except ‘are you going to stay at the club?’ and he has to say yes or no. “
I think he’ll have to sort himself out this week. “
Doomai Because when you start to let time go by beyond next weekend, when you’ve won the league, it doesn’t look good. You’ve got to make your point then. I think at that point you’ve said ‘yes I’ll stay’ or ‘no I won’t stay’.” ( Doomai )
