Trent Alexander-Arnold linked to shock return to Liverpool

Speculation has intensified regarding a potential return of Trent Alexander-Arnold to Liverpool from Real Madrid. Reports suggest Liverpool may be interested in a deal worth approximately €15 million (£13 million) to bring the 27-year-old right-back back to Anfield.

Alexander-Arnold has faced challenges securing a starting role under Real Madrid manager Jose Mourinho, who has prioritized Denzel Dumfries in recent La Liga fixtures. While some reports suggest the player is keen on finding more regular playing time, Real Madrid has firmly dismissed rumors of an imminent departure, asserting that the England international remains a central part of their long-term plans.

Any potential move remains complicated by the nature of Alexander-Arnold’s controversial departure from Liverpool in 2025 and the club's current tactical focus under manager Andoni Iraola. While Newcastle United has also been linked to the player, Real Madrid maintains that a sale or loan is currently off the agenda.
