Liverpool's Trent Alexander-Arnold is poised to make a return to the squad after recovering from injury, although his contract situation remains uncertain. Out of contract at the end of the season, the defender has been linked with a move to Real Madrid. While his teammates Mo Salah and Virgil van Dijk have signed new deals, Alexander-Arnold's future at Liverpool is still undecided.
Manager Arne Slot has refrained from providing details on Alexander-Arnold's contract negotiations, maintaining a consistent stance throughout the season. Despite being ruled out of starting against Leicester, there is a possibility that Alexander-Arnold could feature on the bench for the upcoming match as he continues his recovery from an ankle injury. Slot commended the player's dedication and work ethic during his rehabilitation, emphasizing Alexander-Arnold's significant contributions to Liverpool over the years.
