Michael Owen Confirms Trent Alexander-Arnold's Move to Real Madrid
Former Liverpool star Michael Owen asserts that Trent Alexander-Arnold's transfer to Real Madrid is imminent, following the Spanish club's official offer.
Michael Owen, the former Liverpool and Real Madrid forward, has stated that Trent Alexander-Arnold's move to Real Madrid is only a matter of time. This follows Real Madrid's official €15 million offer for the English defender, which Liverpool has firmly rejected. Despite this, Liverpool remains hopeful of convincing Alexander-Arnold to stay. Owen commented on Twitter, 'The fact that Real Madrid has made their intentions clear to sign Trent Alexander-Arnold makes me think it's only a matter of time before he joins them.' He added that if Alexander-Arnold had extended his contract with Liverpool, Real Madrid would not have made such a public move. Owen's insights are informed by his own experience, having transferred from Liverpool to Real Madrid in 2004 after a prolific career in the Premier League.
