Arsenal, Manchester City and Liverpool have resumed their interest in signing Trent Alexander-Arnold.
TEAMtalk writes that intermediaries in the English market intensified contact with the Briton’s camp to map out the conditions for a possible return to England in 2027.
The coordinated move by the Premier League responds to urgent needs in the respective British squads. Arsenal have identified the 27-year-old defender as a top priority to cover Ben White’s persistent physical issues. Manchester City’s technical department, on the other hand, is looking to strengthen the right side of the defence, while Liverpool are considering bringing back the player who was developed in their own academy.
The defender’s market value stands at €60 million on Transfermarkt, with 34 caps and 4 goals for the England national team. Despite the interest from the UK, the full-back has played 5 games, 292 minutes and provided 1 assist at the start of the 2026/2027 season for Los Blancos.
Real Madrid’s stance on Trent Alexander-Arnold’s contract

In addition, the player has not asked to leave Chamartín, although the three British giants plan to reassess the situation at the end of the season. The messengers from Arsenal, Manchester City and Liverpool will continue to monitor the defender’s minutes during October and November 2026.
If the Englishman continues to be a substitute under Jose Mourinho, the Premier League giants will make bids to bring him back to English football and try to bring him back to his best level.
