Liverpool club legend Jamie Carragher believes Trent Alexander-Arnold desire to join Real Madrid.
On a free transfer is motivate by a desire to build his own personal brand.
The 26-year-old appears destine to leave his boyhood เล่นเกมคาสิโน UFABET ทันสมัย ฝากถอนง่าย club in the summer when his current contract expires and will join the Spanish giants with widespread reports earlier this claiming the move is a done deal.
Reaction to the full-back’s impending departure has typically toxic, on social media in particular, with some fans suggesting he should not play again this season or be allowed to join in the club’s likely Premier League title-winning parade.
Carragher, however, feels the sentiment among the majority of Liverpool’s fanbase is far more empathetic towards a player who has given his all for the club and won every major honour available to him.
He told with ‘[On Trent Alexander-Arnold’s potential move to Real Madrid] I always think an international break is a time where every club are getting things in order for the summer and speaking to agents. So, it was always going to blow up at some stage.
‘People look at the reaction, but social media is so toxic – ‘He shouldn’t play for the club again,’ or ‘Slot shouldn’t play him’ – people use that now as the barometer of the fan’s feelings, but it’s just a mad place [social media], it’s not what normal [fans think].’
Carragher, himself, stoppe short of suggesting he was disappointe with Alexander-Arnold’s decision but feels he will be leaving the club with a measure of unfinishe business.
He added: ‘Where I’m at is that, as a local player and a Liverpool fan, Liverpool are in a position.
Where they’re competing for the league and a European Cup every year. So, if you’re a Liverpool fan and a local player, I’m just disappointe that he doesn’t think that this is it.
‘I’m putting myself in his position, where I’d be thinking that we could go level with Manchester United in league trophies, I’ve got another seven or eight years at Liverpool and want to get three or four ahead of them, with a couple more European Cups.
‘We always talk about rivalries and never think of it as European. In some ways, Real Madrid is a rival, and no one will catch them – they are the biggest and most famous team- but I’m desperate for Liverpool to get second on that list – AC Milan are on 7 [European titles].
‘If I was him, I’d be thinking that we’ve got a great opportunity to win the league this year and could do this and that and at the end of his time, put Liverpool in a position [to top others].’
While the motivation for joining Real might appear obvious given their pedigree, not to mention the financial rewards on offer, many Liverpool fans are struggling to come to terms with the England international’s desire to seek a new challenge.
