Real Madrid is the current champions of both the La Liga and the Champions League. With the addition of Kylian Mbappe and Endrick to their coaching staff during the summer, it is reasonable to assume that they will once again be regarded the favorites to win both championships. If we are talking about FC Barcelona, the age of Xavi has come and gone. It had its moments, but in general, there was nothing that would last. With Hansi Flick serving as the one in charge of the manager’s office this time around, they find themselves once again in the position of having to consider a rebuild.
Right-back is one of the positions that both teams need to improve in order to be successful. In addition to that, it seems that they are both seeking the same transfer target.
In accordance with the information provided by Fichajes, Barcelona has their eyes set on Trent Alexander-Arnold. When his current deal with Liverpool comes to an end in the summer of 2025, he will be eligible to take advantage of a free transfer opportunity.
It is obvious that Liverpool would not want anything like that to take place. In recent years, we have seen a significant number of players running down their contracts before to moving to Spain. In the near future, it is anticipated that the Reds are working toward reaching an agreement with Trent over the renewal of his contract.
Both Real Madrid and Barcelona are interested in an acquisition of the Liverpool superstar.
Even though he is 32 years old, Dani Carvajal is perhaps the finest right-back in the world, and Real Madrid has him on their roster. He should be a candidate for the upcoming Ballon d’Or awards given that he won the Champions League, La Liga, and the European Championships in the previous season. However, time and tide do not wait for anybody. The club will, at some point in the future, be required to locate a suitable successor for the Spaniard. In addition, the possibility of signing a player of Trent’s caliber and status as a free agent is not something that occurs very often.
On the other hand, Barcelona’s right-back position has been a significant problem for them for a considerable amount of time now. There have been instances in which players such as Ronald Araujo and Jules Kounde have filled in for them, although both of them are mainly regarded to be center backs.
At the end of the day, Liverpool and Trent are the ones that have all the cards in their possession. Let’s wait and see what happens within the context of the contract scenario.
