Trent Alexander-Arnold 'wants two things from Liverpool' in order to sign a new deal and turn off a move to Real Madrid.

According to reports, Trent Alexander-Arnold rejected a deal to Real Madrid this summer by making two demands of Liverpool.

One of the main topics of discussion during the January transfer window is the 26-year-old's future, as his contract expires in the summer.

On New Year's Eve, Paul Joyce of the Times reported that Liverpool had turned down a deal from Real Madrid for Alexander-Arnold. The defending Champions League champions were reportedly prepared to pay £20 million to acquire him before the deadline.

Given that Real can agree to a pre-contract right away to sign the right-back in the summer, the fact that a bid is being made shows how eager Los Blancos are to finalise the deal early. Such a cost would be significantly below what the Reds would expect to collect if the right-back was on a long-term agreement.

Alexander-Arnold has not yet expressed a wish to leave Anfield, according to a December Liverpool Echo article, and it seems the Reds are still making an effort to persuade him to stay.

Ben Jacobs claims that in order to get Anfield's management to contemplate an extension, Alexander-Arnold has made two demands.

"I've heard that, although Trent is not open to a mid-season move, what he does want from Liverpool - if he is to extend - is a three-year contract minimum," he clarified in an interview with talkSPORT. and eventually to serve as the football team's captain.

Thus, pay attention to whether the conversations between Alexander-Arnold and Virgil van Dijk are connected in any way. And will Van Dijk be affected if Trent is informed that he will eventually be captain?

"But as of now, what I think we can say is that Liverpool are more confident that Van Dijk and Salah might stay, whereas Trent Alexander-Arnold feels like an open situation at the moment."

Representatives of Trent Alexander-Arnold have been contacted by SPORTbible for comment.

Last month, The Athletic reported that Liverpool had presented fresh contract proposals to Alexander-Arnold, Van Dijk, and Salah, three players whose contracts were up.

Salah, who leads the Premier League in goals this season with 17 and 13 assists, was reticent to discuss his future after Liverpool's 5-0 victory against West Ham.

"We are far away from that [agreeing on a new contract]," he said to Sky Sports.

"But once more, I don't want to publish anything that could lead to rumours. However, nothing [has] actually changed, and I'm now concentrating on the team."

Since Alexander-Arnold's current contract expires in the summer, there has been a lot of discussion about a transfer.

Arne Slot has not spoken on the future of the Liverpool trio, so Virgil van Dijk and Mohamed Salah are in a similar predicament.

"In general, I don’t talk about contract situations here," he said. It's surprising that I made the announcement that one of them had extended. It is your responsibility to keep asking, but I doubt I will respond.
