Because Jurgen Klopp is set to leave Liverpool in the summer, there is a lot of uncertainty surrounding the club.

Last summer, senior players left Anfield, and fans breathed a sigh of relief when Mohamed Salah chose to stay in spite of offers from the Saudi Pro League.

But with the legendary manager of Liverpool leaving in a few months, there will be worries that key players might follow him out the door.

Recently, there have been rumors that Real Madrid is looking into Trent Alexander-Arnold’s contract status; his current deal expires in 2025.

ESPN reported that Steve Nicol said he could see the imaginative fullback moving and that he had received bids for his services that were as low as “£60 million.”

He was adamant, meanwhile, that the 25-year-old simply cannot defend and that Conor Bradley, a gifted young player, is “miles better” at the defensive position.

With sporadic assistance from utility players like James Milner, Joe Gomez, and Jordan Henderson, Trent Alexander-Arnold has been the sole player in that area for a considerable amount of time.

Steve Nicol offered his opinions on the Real Madrid rumors that have surfaced now that there is more depth in that area.

“I think it will be interesting that Klopp is leaving because, as we’ve all said, Trent Alexander-Arnold is a poor defender at fullback,” Nicol remarked. It is impossible to avoid that. It doesn’t matter who you back. which sports team you follow. It’s not a good defender, Trent Alexander-Arnold.

“But he is so good going forward that it wouldn’t be a surprise if Real Madrid were to offer, I don’t know, £60, 70 or 80 million for Trent Alexander-Arnold when you have a young kid in Conor Bradley, who is a miles better defender, great going forward, but it’s in the same class as Trent.”
