Liverpool supporters of a certain age may recall the time when a Steven Gerrard transfer to Chelsea looked inevitable, even if the circumstances were entirely different.

Rather, Gerrard chose to remain at Anfield, where he signed a new contract and remained for ten more years.
It is not impossible for Trent Alexander-Arnold to have a similar result.
Because Arsenal destroyed Real Madrid the other night, it would be oversimplified to assume that Alexander-Arnold is reconsidering a move to the Spanish capital.
Ultimately, it was just a single match, and Real Madrid remains Real Madrid.
With a beautiful stadium in a fantastic city, it remains one of the most renowned and glamorous clubs in the world.
Indeed, as we are constantly reminded, it is difficult to reject Real Madrid’s advances.
A free transfer to Madrid would also be very profitable for Alexander-Arnold.
For many who have elevated this Real Madrid team to a rarefied status, the humiliation at the Emirates served as a wake-up call.
Additionally, it is highly likely that a replacement for Alexander-Arnold will be part of the recruitment process, reports Mirror.
Alexander-Arnold has been with Liverpool since he was a little lad, so a transfer to Madrid would be an interesting challenge.
