Liverpool star Trent Alexander-Arnold has secured permission to keep a £50,000 padel court at his £5 million Cheshire mansion, despite initially building it without approval. However, he may not be around to enjoy it for long, as speculation about a summer move to Real Madrid continues to intensify.
According to The Daily Mail, the 26-year-old right-back constructed the court without prior approval from East Cheshire Council but has now been granted retrospective permission after agreeing to certain conditions.
Madrid Move on the Horizon?
With only months left on his Liverpool contract, Alexander-Arnold is heavily linked with a move to La Liga giants Real Madrid. Reports suggest that Los Blancos are ramping up their pursuit to secure his signature this summer, potentially ending his iconic spell at Anfield.
Alexander-Arnold, who bought his luxurious property from Chelsea winger Raheem Sterling in 2022, has built a dream home featuring a swimming pool, cinema, games room, and bar, alongside the newly approved padel court.
Focus on Liverpool for Now
Despite transfer speculation, the England international remains focused on the present, as Liverpool prepare to face Southampton at Anfield on Saturday, looking to continue their push for silverware.
