All of that means is that he is now free to negotiate with the Spanish giants, who have been open to bringing him in as early as January and paying Liverpool a transfer fee.

But Real Madrid are not only pursuing a sensational deal for Alexander-Arnold. There is another player the club have sought after for a long time.

And the latest developments around his future could have a major impact on Alexander-Arnold's fate.

Why latest Alphonso Davies developments could completely change Alexander-Arnold's future

Another player Real Madrid have publically pursued for over a year now is Alphonso Davies. Currently, the Canadian international's contract expires at the end of the season.

Real Madrid have been his biggest suitors to sign him on a free deal. Although recently Liverpool have been linked as well.

But there has been a massive twist in the story with Florian Plettenberg reporting that Davies is expected to sign a new deal and stay at Bayern.

This will be a massive blow to Real Madrid and it could completely change the course of action of Alexander-Arnold's future.

With Davies ruled out, Madrid's focus will now completely shift on the Liverpool right-back alone.

Florentino Perez will know how negatively it will look on his club if Real misses out on not just one but two of their key targets.

That could very well mean that Real Madrid will do everything in their power to try to bring Alexander-Arnold to the Spanish capital making it even more difficult for him to refuse their advances.

Not to mention missing out on Davies gives room for Real Madrid to offer more financial incentives to Alexander-Arnold as well considering they will no longer have to make a hefty offer to the Canadian.

All of this could be very bad news for Liverpool. But the club will also do everything in their attempts to dissuade Alexander-Arnold from joining Real.

It will just remain to be seen which party will be successful in their attempts.
