Alexander-Arnold weighs options amid limited starts
Real Madrid defender Trent Alexander-Arnold is assessing his future at the club after making just three LaLiga starts this season. The 27-year-old has faced competition from Denzel Dumfries, prompting Liverpool, Chelsea, Arsenal and Manchester City to monitor developments. Liverpool is seeking right-back options following an injury to Jeremie Frimpong. Madrid is also finalizing a one-year contract extension with 34-year-old goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois.

The 21-year-old arrived from SC Freiburg for around £60 million this summer and has recorded two goals and two assists in four matches.

Chelsea has contacted representatives of Bournemouth midfielder Alex Scott, with any January deal expected to require at least £100 million.

Real Madrid has submitted an offer for Manchester United youngster JJ Gabriel, while Liverpool tracks €55-million rated Monaco midfielder Lamine Camara for a potential 2027 move.
