Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti has been quizzed on the club’s interest in Liverpool right-back Trent Alexander-Arnold.
Los Blancos are willing to pay £20million to bring Alexander-Arnold to the Bernabeu this month, or will wait until his contract at Anfield expires in the summer and snap him up for free.
It remains possible Alexander-Arnold will sign a new Liverpool contract but far likelier seems to be the possibility of him joining the reigning European champions.
Ancelotti told a press conference today: “It is difficult for me to talk about that in this context. But we are going to have to wait and see.
“We are focused on all these games in January and the game tomorrow (against Valencia) and I’ve got nothing more to say. It’s not sensible for me to speak about the market right now.
“I’m not going to speak about it because right now, here, is not the place to talk about it.
“We will see what will happen but I have a great squad. We have got injuries and problems with that but we are also able to overcome them.”
