Trent Alexander-Arnold has reportedly edged closer to leaving Liverpool for Real Madrid, while a key Reds injury update has emerged.

Today’s Main LFC Headline

A move to Madrid for Alexander-Arnold has felt possible for months, with the 26-year-old still not signing a new Liverpool deal.

Let’s hope not!
