Liverpool fans believe Trent Alexander-Arnold received a frosty welcome upon his return to training, fueling speculation about his potential move to Real Madrid.
On Monday, Liverpool players were back at the AXA Training Centre ahead of their return to Premier League action. However, Reds supporters noticed what they described as an unusually distant atmosphere surrounding Alexander-Arnold, just days after reports emerged that his switch to Madrid was ‘confirmed’—though neither club has officially announced the deal.
Reactions on social media reflected a mix of frustration and disappointment:
- @TW11DC wrote on X: “The disgust on their faces.”
- @MagicienAnwar tweeted: “Don’t play Trent ever again.”
- @KingsZekiel commented: “Why did they allow Trent in there?”
- @h3nockers13 noted: “66 looks thrilled to be there…”
- @__Nkansah added: “See how cold the environment was when he arrived.”
Alexander-Arnold, a Liverpool academy graduate and club legend, has played a crucial role in their recent success. However, with reports suggesting he has rejected contract offers from the Reds in favor of Madrid, some fans now view his potential departure with disappointment.
