Real Madrid have made their first signing of the summer, according to transfer journalist Fabrizio Romano. A deal rumoured for the best part of the last 15 months, Liverpool right-back Trent Alexander-Arnold will join Los Blancos this summer.
The 26-year-old was first linked to Real Madrid back in March of 2024, as his contract approached its final year with Liverpool. That was when Los Blancos began their charm offensive, letting Alexander-Arnold know that they were interested.
As negotiations with Liverpool failed to progress, first reports of a rough agreement on terms appeared in late 2024, and by February it was more or less unanimous that a deal had been agreed, pending Alexander-Arnold’s final green light. Now, according to Romano, Alexander-Arnold has confirmed his decision, and has a verbal agreement with Real Madrid to join on a five-year contract, after a lengthy pursuit of the England international.

I am a Madrid fan but i dont like the strategy of the way they getting players always other clubs are crying about them such as Alba, mbampe, Rudiga and many other's and now it's Arnold. Believe me this team of Madrid was good before Mbampe came look what's happening this season nothing they will win because of this selfishness and am wishing all the best to the rivals Baca they had a problems of not to register players but looking where they are am wishing them the best of final, am real tired of this nonsense
