Real Madrid are on the verge of securing another marquee signing, with reports indicating that Trent Alexander-Arnold’s transfer to the Spanish giants is nearly complete.
According to Sergio Lopez in AS, the move is considered 99% done, with only an official announcement remaining.
In recent seasons, Real Madrid have focused on rejuvenating their squad with young talents to build a sustainable future.
Their current squad averages 27 years in age, blending youthful dynamism with seasoned experience.

La SER sets the official date for Alexander-Arnold’s Real Madrid debut: a special event.
Talks between the player and Real Madrid are reportedly finalized, with all contract terms agreed.
The club has structured his salary and contract duration, ensuring a long-term deal. Now, only his formal Liverpool exit remains.

Liverpool, however, are still trying to retain their prized right-back. Despite his Madrid interest, they continue efforts to extend his stay at Anfield.
In January, they rejected all bids, including Madrid’s €15 million offer, choosing to risk losing him for free this summer.
At this point, the decision is entirely in the player’s hands. Real Madrid have done their part, and unless Alexander-Arnold has a change of heart, his Bernabéu move looks inevitable.
With the deal nearly complete, his official unveiling as a Real Madrid player seems imminent.
