Right-back Trent Alexander-Arnold could make a return to the Premier League sooner than expected — but not with Liverpool.
According to DefensaCentral, the Real Madrid defender could leave Los Blancos during the summer transfer window of 2026.
The 27-year-old England international has reportedly not yet fully adapted to life at his new club, leaving his long-term future uncertain.
Reports suggest that Manchester City, Manchester United, and Newcastle United could be willing to offer up to €40 million to sign Alexander-Arnold in the summer of 2026.
However, from the player’s side, Alexander-Arnold does not wish to leave Real Madrid, and the club itself is not yet prepared to consider offers.
Within the squad, there remains strong belief in the defender’s abilities, with coaching staff convinced that he simply needs more playing time to fully adapt to his new environment.
Alexander-Arnold joined Real Madrid in the summer of 2025 on a free transfer. So far this season, he has registered one assist in 11 club appearances.
While speculation continues to grow, both player and club remain committed to making the partnership work — at least for now.
