Liverpool are in talks over new contracts with Trent Alexander-Arnold and the latest media reports suggest a deal in principle has been reached.
Last week, 90min reported that the England international was close to signing a new contract to extend his stay at Anfield.
More recently, Football Insider revealed that the Reds have reached an agreement in principle with their vice-captain.
Accordingto Pete O’Rourke, the 24-year-old right-back is a sought-after player on the transfer market, but would like to stay at his childhood club.
Alexander-Arnold’scurrent contract with Liverpool expires in the summer of 2025 and he earns a salary of around £160,000 a week. If extended, we can expect him to become one of the highest paid stars at Anfield.
In the current season, the Three Lions star has made four appearances for the Merseysiders so far, keeping one clean sheet and also providing one assist.
There is no doubt that Trent needs to improve his defensive game a lot as he has already made mistakes that have led to goals this season.
He has missed the last three games with a hamstring injury and is unlikely to be in the squad for tomorrow’s Carabao Cup match against Leicester City.

Liverpool considers finally signing £43.5 million star, who would accept transfer to Anfield – Report
Liverpool will need a top-tier playmaker to replace Mohamed Salah, and Federico Chiesa is one candidate on their radar.
The Reds were widely connected with the Italian international for long time, including during the summer transfer window, but he ultimately stayed with Juventus.
Last month, the Bianconeri demanded a transfer fee of €50m (£43.5m) for their prized asset and Corriere dello Sport revealed he would happily agree to a move to Anfield.
According to Spanish source Fichajes, Liverpool are now considering permanently signing the Azzurri striker in case Salah leaves. It is reported that the Mersey siders want to retain a successful squad if the Egyptian leaves and that is why they are looking for a solid player in the form of Chiesa.
The 25-year-old playmaker was one of the best players at the European Championship two years ago, when Italy won the competition.
Unfortunately, he has spent most of the last 24 months on the treatment table. However, the former Fiorentina star’s fitness issues are behind him and he has started the new season brilliantly.
The ad is loading Cheisa has scored four goals and provided one assist in five Serie A matches for Juventus so far and we can expect him to start in tonight’s league match against Lecce.

His current contract in Turin expires in 2025. Should Liverpool offer £43.5m to sign Federico Chiesa?
