Trent Alexander-Arnold Still Expected to Leave Liverpool Despite Hints at Possible U-Turn
Trent Alexander-Arnold is still widely tipped to depart Liverpool at the end of the 2024/25 season, with his contract set to expire next summer. Real Madrid are reportedly preparing to capitalize on the situation, possibly securing the right-back before the Club World Cup kicks off.
However, recent online speculation suggests Trent might be having second thoughts. Could he still opt to remain at Anfield?
Though no decision has been made public, the general consensus is that the Liverpool Academy graduate is leaning toward a summer move to Real Madrid. Yet, his recent actions—celebrating passionately during Liverpool’s title triumph and showing no signs of emotional detachment—have fueled hopes among fans that he might reconsider. As a proud Scouser and lifelong Red, his connection to the club runs deep, especially after helping secure a second Premier League crown.
Did Trent and John Henry Talk About the Future?
Following Liverpool’s dominant 5-1 win over Tottenham, which sealed a 20th league title, cameras captured a conversation between Trent and club owner John W. Henry. Some believe it might have been a heart-to-heart regarding his future and the importance of clarity for supporters.
Still, no official word has emerged, and the prevailing view is that a departure remains likely.
According to Daily Mail journalist Lewis Steele, the club’s plans haven’t changed: “If Trent Alexander-Arnold leaves – and we still believe he will despite the recent speculation – then Liverpool will need a new right-back.”
While Conor Bradley has impressed in spells, there are lingering doubts about his long-term reliability due to recurring injuries.
Fans may need to start preparing for Trent’s possible exit, but with emotions still high following another title win, there’s a glimmer of hope that he might yet stay. Time will reveal the final decision.
