Liverpool report: Shocking Trent Alexander-Arnold contract details revealed in 'contract certainty'

The Merseysiders have extended their lead at the top of the Premier League table to a commanding ten points following their impressive 2-0 victory over Manchester City on Sunday. Goals from Mohamed Salah and Dominik Szoboszlai secured Arne Slot's team their 19th top-flight win of the season.
But with silverware still the forefront focus of everyone at Anfield, could Liverpool now have been handed a key update regarding Trent's future that we are all blatantly unaware of?
Trent Alexander-Arnold's heavily-reported move to Real Madrid is now said to be a 'certainty'
Ever since he was a teenage boy, Alexander-Arnold has dominated the Premier League and has pretty much won all there is to win in England. Now set to claim his second top-flight crown with the Reds, it is no secret Trent has desires to play elsewhere across the world.
So can Slot really be mad at the Three Lions international - ranked at no.11 in FourFourTwo's list of the best players in the world right now - for wanting to try football in a different continent? We think not.
According to Cadena SER, Alexander-Arnold's move to the Bernabeu is now seen as a 'certainty', despite Liverpool's best attempts to keep him beyond this season.
Set to link up with England pal Jude Bellingham, Trent has a verbal agreement with the reigning UEFA Champions League holders for a four-year deal. Transfermarkt value the defender at €75m (£62.2m).

The 21-year-old has so far made 22 appearances under Slot and is heavily fancied to become the Merseysiders' no.1 choice at right-back next season.
"I have been at the club 20 years now, I have signed four or five contract extensions and none of those have been played out in public - and this one won't be either," said Trent when asked about his future in 2024.
In FourFourTwo's humble opinion, Trent's radio silence on the matter suggests to us he is close to leaving the club - but did he silently tell us this in his interview with editor Matthew Ketchell back in January 2024?
Liverpool are in Premier League action this week as they take on Newcastle United at Anfield.
