Trent Alexander-Arnold transfer: Real Madrid pay Liverpool for early signing
Real Madrid agree a deal with Liverpool to sign England right-back Trent Alexander-Arnold.
Does it? You and I are probably on different poles of TAA debate but I’ve always had the impression that these farewell messages from the official website were pretty telling when it came to the player and general feelings about his departure. You’d feel a player who so proudly wore the “twenty years at this club” argument would get a warmer send-off.
Can we close this now that it is official?
Would the club really go to that extent? What would the point be?
I haven’t read those messages before, but I really don’t think the club would bother with encoding subtle messages. If anything, perhaps it might have been that the person tasked with writing it might just be really annoyed with him, at the most.
Move this to the ex player thread already.
If I have this right, the near £10m is “pure profit” in PSR terms, so equates to being able to spend £30m on a transfer within the reporting period - that’s the Frimpong transfer covered off then.
10m is a very nice outcome on that considering the quoted figure earlier.
Well played Hughes
I can’t stand Real either bunch of cheats.
You spelt @The-AllMightyReds wrong.
FWIW I reckon I would’ve been able to shaft Madrid for £20m, but that’s neither here nor there.
Not necessarily the same as;
I don’t think there’s a better right back in the world.
I don’t believe he is that guy.
And @PeachesEnRegalia reckons he has a chance at Scarlett Johansson…
Has a chance?
He’s been there and done that, many times and in many different positions.
Given that traditionally the primary role of a right back is to defend, I’d say hes a million miles away from being “that guy”
traditionally
Move with the times, man.
The role of all footballers now is to wear shit clothes, carry a man bag and post about their holidays in Dubai on social media.
Wonder when the reality sets in…and he realises LFC is where he should be…aahh well…good luck Trenty, but is it what u really want…
Looking forward to them failing miserably at this circus of a tournament
