Barcelona and Real Madrid both interested in signing Trent Alexander-Arnold

It’s no secret that Barcelona and Real Madrid both have struggles at right back. The former currently do not have a natural one in Xavi Hernandez’s squad, while there have been doubts over Dani Carvajal’s performance levels for the latter.

Both clubs could be in the market for a new right back this summer, and a shock target that has emerged for both is Trent Alexander-Arnold. MD have reported that the Liverpool defender has taken the interest of both clubs, who could make a move before the start of next season.

Alexander-Arnold has been regarded as one of the best right backs in world football for several years now, although this season has been a difficult one for the 24-year-old, who has struggled defensively at times.

Although there is little doubt about Alexander-Arnold’s ability, his suitability for either Barcelona or Real Madrid is questionable. Xavi and Carlo Ancelotti appear to be looking for a fullback that is adept defensively, and there have been huge question marks over the Englishman’s defensive capabilities this season.

  1. No thanks i wouldn’t even take this guy if liverpool gave him to us for free,the reason is simple hes not a defender and does not know how to defend at all,another perfect example of a highly overrated player just like another highly overrated player we are constantly being linked with zubimendi,I sincerely hope and pray that neither trent Alexander or zubimendi come anywhere near fc barcelona this summer or any summer for that matter.
