Liverpool transfer news today: Trent REPLACEMENT, Slot REQUESTS £67m man

Here’s all your latest Liverpool transfer news to catch up on. The Reds have reportedly found a replacement for Trent Alexander-Arnold.

Dumfries for Trent?

For a while now, Real Madrid have sat in the driver’s seat to secure Trent Alexander-Arnold’s signature if he does decide to leave his boyhood club. Recently, however, links to German giants Bayern Munich have emerged.

Spanish outlet TodoFichajes are reporting that Trent has now been “clear that he wants to leave Anfield next summer”, with everything being prepared from Madrid’s end for his arrival.

The recent injury to Madrid’s starting right-back Dani Carvajal has thrown a spanner in the works here, but Madrid are not expected to attempt to bring Trent in this coming January transfer window.

The same report indicates that, should Trent leave, Liverpool have identified Inter Milan and Netherlands man Denzel Dumfries as the one to replace the Scouser.

The 23-year-old has scored four goals and registered three assists in nine appearances in all competitions. With Slot also making a magnificent start to the season winning six of his first seven Premier League matches, it could be a perfect match for the pair.

The Turkish player led Slot’s Feyernoord side to the Eredivisie title in the 2022-23 season and the coach believes Kokcu could further strengthen the Liverpool squad who have a congested campaign.

Pearce shuts down Trent talk

Trent Alexander-Arnold Man Utd Liverpool 2024-25

Speaking on the Walk On podcast, the Athletic’s James Pearce said reports that there will be a swoop for Trent Alexander-Arnold in January are farfetched, adding that talks for a contract renewal are continuing at pace behind the scenes.

“There’s absolutely zero chance that Trent will go anywhere in January,” said Pearce. “I saw some nonsense about Real Madrid planning a bid for him in January – I don’t believe that’s true.

“Like we’ve said many times before: every top club in Europe will be keeping a very close eye on developments over Trent’s future because my information at the moment is that there is no decision that’s been taken and those talks are ongoing. “But the fact it was left very late by Liverpool to open those discussions, with him down to his last year, obviously makes things more difficult.”
