Real Madrid are already working on solutions after it was confirmed that Dani Carvajal will miss the remainder of the season after he sustained a serious knee injury in the victory over Villarreal on Saturday. A replacement could be signed in January, and Trent Alexander-Arnold is the leading candidate at this stage.
Los Blancos have been tracking Alexander-Arnold for some time, and they have been considering the possibility of a pre-contract agreement for the 25-year-old right-back, whose Liverpool contract expires at the end of the season.
For now, Alexander-Arnold is undoubtedly Real Madrid’s top right-back target, and according to Diario AS, this has seen interest drop in Achraf Hakimi. Los Blancos officials had been looking at their former player as a successor for Carvajal, but for the time being at least, he is not a serious contender.
It remains to be seen if Real Madrid can secure the services of Alexander-Arnold. If they cannot, there is a chance that their interest in Hakimi is re-ignited down the line.
