Andy Robertson becomes first Liverpool player to address Trent Alexander-Arnold to Real Madrid rumours

Trent Alexander-Arnold has been heavily linked with a move to Real Madrid.

Andy Robertson has spoken about reports linking Trent Alexander-Arnold to Real Madrid.

Heading into the business end of the 24/25 season, it is expected that Alexander-Arnold will put an end to his Liverpool career come the summer.

As things stand, the full-back's contract will expire at the end of the campaign and he has been heavily linked with a move to Spanish La Liga giants Madrid.

Last month, transfer specialist Fabrizio Romano wrote: "Trent Alexander-Arnold and Real Madrid, closer and closer after story revealed 1 year ago.

"The official contract proposal from Real has been sent to TAA and his camp. Discussions underway on details of the deal; all parties involved CONFIDENT to get the agreement done."

Ahead of Liverpool's Premier League match against Fulham on Sunday, fellow full-back Robertson was asked about Alexander-Arnold's future.

The Scotsman replied: "Trent’s head is not great because he’s injured. And Trent hates being injured, that is the way he is. You know, none of us like being injured but I think over the years that I have played with him, it probably hurts Trent a little bit more.

"He loves being on the grass, he loves playing football, so that’s all he is focused on. It is impossible for me to say we have not seen all the noise and everyone commenting on it and things like that."

Robertson continued: "But for us, our focus is for him to get back fit and healthy and once he does that then hopefully back on the pitch. Once he does that, what will happen [with his future], will happen. No one knows that yet.

"People can talk and there's a lot of speculation, everyone is speaking about it. But for us we just want another right-back option back and Trent is a huge player for that and hopefully he is back on the pitch very soon."

Liverpool currently have a 12-point lead over Arsenal at the top of the Premier League and with just eight matches to play, Arne Slot's men are in pole position to clinch the title.
