    THE BIGGER PICTURE

    However, a move to the Spanish capital would not make everyone happy, Jamie Carragher says, as the Liverpool legend pointed out that legendary right-back Dani Carvajal would not give up his spot in the starting XI at Santiago Bernabeu so easily.

  • WHAT CARRAGHER SAID

    Speaking about Alexander-Arnold's situation on Sky Sports, Carragher said: "I think Carvajal would have something to say about it as well, with people talking about Trent. He’s only won the European Cup six times and the Euros in the summer, so I don’t think he’d be too happy about it."

    On the subject of the England star staying or leaving, he said: "It’s a case of: ‘What do you want for the rest of your life?’ He’s in the dream position as a footballer – 25 years of age, one year left on your contract, he could see how this year goes, he can wait until Christmas, I’m sure there will already be some dialogue with other clubs, let’s be honest, that’s how it works. It will be interesting how it plays out."
