Trent Alexander-Arnold tipped to make Premier League transfer months after leaving Liverpool

Didi Hamann says Bayern Munich could be Trent Alexander-Arnold's next move if he leaves Real Madrid — though he could also end up at Tottenham Hotspur.

Speculation that Alexander-Arnold has been told to leave the Bernabeu is thought to be wide of the mark. However, things have not gone completely smoothly for the Liverpool academy graduate since he left Anfield in the summer.

Alexander-Arnold has been injured with a couple of separate issues and has only started five La Liga games to date. The coach who he was signed to play for, Xabi Alonso, was also fired earlier in the month.

"A club like Bayern Munich is always interested in players of Trent’s quality," Hamann said.

"I think without a question, he is probably one of the best passers England has seen in the last 10 or 15 years. Bayern would be on high alert if he were to become available.

"If he came back to England, I’m sure that some of the London clubs would be interested in him. They always need good players.

"Spurs need players who know what it’s like to win. I know they won a title last season but they’ve been underperforming again by a way this season. I could well see Trent at a club like Spurs."

Alexander-Arnold was jeered when he returned to Anfield with Real Madrid in November, but Hamann says Liverpool should be open to a reunion at some point in the future too.

"I would take Alexander-Arnold back," Hamann, speaking to Casino Beats, continued. "Whether he would contemplate it, I’m not sure.

"He wasn’t best pleased with the way people reacted when he said he wanted to go to Madrid. I was at the game against Madrid and saw the reception he got when he came out but things can change quickly in football.

"It would take a lot of persuasion from Liverpool, I think. On his side, you don’t know what the reaction will be. But as a matter of fact, he was a tremendous player for the club and he had the chance to go to Madrid.

"I never faulted him because the club could have extended his contract a year earlier had they paid him more money.

"If he wants to do something new then Real Madrid are one of the biggest if not the biggest club in the world so I would take Trent back.

"The fans probably see it differently but I think he’s a strong boy. Stranger things have happened in football so I wouldn’t rule it out."

Liverpool.com says: There is no reason for Alexander-Arnold to leave Real Madrid. Once he settles, everyone knows his quality. If he did move on, there would be interest from all over the continent.
