Real Madrid are reportedly keeping an eye on Trent Alexander-Arnold as his future at Liverpool remains uncertain.
The 25-year-old has been one of the Reds most important players since he debuted with the senior team in October 2016.
Following its continued success five years later, Alexander-Arnold signed a new contract to commit his long-term future to Liverpool.
However, this is set to expire in the summer of 2025 and there is no word yet on him signing a new contract at Anfield.
As a result, the Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano has stated that the European giants Madrid They are 'monitoring' the defender's contractual situation.
Talks over a new contract have yet to begin, although Liverpool have shown no signs of wanting to sell.
Alexander-Arnold's own views also remain unknown as his contract expiry could attract offers in the summer.
It could be one of three big-name departures from Liverpool as they prepare for life afterward. Jurgen Klopp.
Fellow key players Virgil van Dijk and Mohamed Salah They are in the same situation as Alexander-Arnold and their deals also expire next year.
They are both in their early 30s, while Alexander-Arnold is in his early 20s, meaning he is still someone to keep for the future.
The Liverpool academy graduate has made 302 senior appearances for the club, scoring 18 goals and assisting a further 82.
Alexander-Arnold has been crucial to Premier League, Champions League and domestic cup success in recent seasons.
Former Liverpool chief executive Peter Moore told talkSPORT that his contract situation, along with that of Van Dijk and Salah, will be one of the first big jobs for Michael Edwards as their new chief football officer.
And fans will be desperate for him to sign another long-term deal as they chase more silverware in the post-Klopp era.
