Real Madrid defender Trent Alexander-Arnold has no intention of leaving the Spanish club during the January transfer window.
The 28-year-old player is determined to remain in Madrid and compete for a regular spot in the starting lineup throughout the remainder of the season, according to reports from Fabrizio Romano.
Recent tactical adjustments by manager Jose Mourinho have shifted captain Fede Valverde to the right-back position, which has further limited opportunities for Alexander-Arnold.
The defender had already been struggling to secure minutes behind Denzel Dumfries, who has emerged as the manager’s preferred choice for the role.
Despite these challenges, the club and the player have both confirmed there are no plans to part ways mid-season, as noted by Madrid Universal.
Journalist Fabrizio Romano also addressed speculation regarding a potential transfer back to Liverpool.
He indicated that such a move is not currently being considered, stating that “the English club have held no negotiations with Trent as things stand.”
Alexander-Arnold remains under contract with the Spanish side until 2031, providing stability for both the player and the organization.
Since joining the club at the start of last season, the England international has faced difficulties, including injuries and inconsistent form that hindered his ability to establish himself.
Although he showed signs of growth following the arrival of Mourinho, the current season has seen him transition into a fringe player.
Mourinho previously experimented with the defender in a midfield role during a match against Inter Milan but later expressed that he would not repeat that tactical decision.
While the player remains committed to succeeding at the Santiago Bernabeu, his future beyond the current campaign may be reevaluated if he cannot secure more consistent playing time under the current coaching staff.
For now, all parties involved are focused on the remainder of the season without any immediate plans for a transfer departure.
