What is clear is that Real Madrid's main priority right now is to need a defender to replace Daniel Carvajal to strengthen the back line and Real Madrid has been eyeing Alexander Arnold for a long time even before Carvajal was injured but Liverpool are still very reluctant to let him go because he is Liverpool's mainstay player for years but unfortunately he has not signed a new contract and regarding his contract he will expire next season if Alexander Arnold signs a new contract with Liverpool I think Real Madrid will give up unless he makes a tempting offer to Liverpool.
Yes, Real Madrid is looking for a figure who will strengthen them in the defense line. Alexander Arnold is the player they are currently reportedly targeting, yes, although it will be difficult to bring this player from Liverpool, but their chances of getting his signature are still there. I think this will depend on the player's decision, because he will consider staying at Liverpool or will prefer Real Madrid. Both Liverpool and Real Madrid are big teams, so this will also be a fairly difficult consideration for Arnold to decide.
Alexander Trent is an hot figure in the defense and he's the kind of personality real Madrid likes and would do all they can to add him to thier squared as long as he's interested in leaving Liverpool. his defense ability is almost like that of rudiger with regards the way he bullies attacker and makes it very deficult for them to do well against him.
If you have himself and rudiger on the defense, that alone as sorted a lot of things out. Look at the way he frustrated Sancho in the Liverpool - Chelsea game and nullified all the attempt Sancho made at the wing. It's just what real Madrid is looking out for to make her team as matured and experienced as possible. If he leaves Liverpool, it's going to be a minus for the team most expecially at this point when it seems very likely that they might start winnñg at the EPL if Pep retires or man city starts performing lesser than expected.
The likelihood of them winning the EPL is still strong and thier eyes is till fixed at the UCL. Even with the quality in the real Madrid team, I would bet on Liverpool to win more games than real Madrid because they play better games and are more organized than the real Madrid team since the likes of Tony Kross left the team. At the end, he knows what he wants but at 26, he doesn't look like one that's done with the English league.
