Michael Owen has provided a major update on Trent Alexander-Arnold’s future at Liverpool amid ongoing transfer speculation linking him to Real Madrid.

With Alexander-Arnold’s contract set to expire this summer, rumors about his departure have intensified in recent weeks. However, on New Year’s Eve, reports surfaced claiming Liverpool had firmly rejected a January approach from Real Madrid for the 26-year-old.

He wrote: “The fact that Real Madrid have now made their intentions clear about signing Trent Alexander-Arnold suggests to me that it’s only a matter of time before he joins them.
