messi1688 La Liga giants Real Madrid are set to hold talks with Liverpool over a deal to sign Trent Alexander-Arnold before his contract expires in time for the Club World Cup, Sky Sports reports.
The 26-year-old right-back is out of contract with the Reds until June 30 but Los Blancos face Al Hilal in their first game of the club’s championship on June 18, with the Spanish giants set to hold talks in the hope of signing him sooner rather than later. messi1688
FIFA has opened a special transfer window for clubs participating in the Club World Cup to sign and register players from June 1 to 10, and they can change the list of players for the tournament from June 27 to July 3, up to two players.
If they qualify for the knockout stages, Real Madrid will have a game on July 1 where they could name Trent if an early signing doesn’t materialise, but Los Blancos are reportedly keen to include the assist-rich full-back in the tournament from the start, with British media suggesting another possibility could see the Spanish giants pay Liverpool a fee in compensation to make the deal happen.
Liverpool’s last game of the season is against Crystal Palace on May 25. ( messi1688 )
