Already agreed to go” – Liverpool legend claims star player has made up his mind

Liverpool legend Mark Lawrenson has claimed that right-back Trent Alexander-Arnold has made up his mind to leave the club.

The Liverpool defender has entered the final year of his contract at the club and his long term future at Anfield remains uncertain.

A lot of suggestions have been made in the media about what the England international is going to do next but with every passing month, uncertainty is increasing over the chance of him signing a new contract at the club.

Real Madrid have shown interest in the services of the player and despite the club indulging in talks to keep hold of him, Lawrenson feels that the full-back has made up his mind to leave and start a new chapter in his career away from the Merseyside club.

While talking on talkSPORT, the Liverpool legend said:

“I think he has already agreed to go, to be honest with you, because his big mate plays there, doesn’t he?”

“And I think he is one of those lads who is very well educated, and he’s kind of thinking, you know what? I have done everything at Liverpool, maybe I have got to go to Spain, learn the language.

“Why wouldn’t you want to play for Real Madrid? They win the Champions League every year, don’t they?”
