Summarize this content to 2000 words in 6 paragraphs Trent Alexander-Arnold is edging towards a Liverpool exit which would leave a huge void as Arne Slot is urged to promote from within despite transfers being identified12:14, 28 Mar 2025Updated 12:15, 28 Mar 2025Arne Slot has seen Conor Bradley excel when given an opportunity(Image: OLI SCARFF/AFP via Getty Images)Trent Alexander-Arnold’s time at Liverpool appears to be coming to an end and Arne Slot has been urged to look to his squad for his replacement. Jamie Carragher wants to see Conor Bradley promoted to first-choice in that position despite two transfer targets being identified.Alexander-Arnold is one of three major names at Anfield who will be free to leave in a matter of months. The right-back has continued to be linked with a move to Real Madrid and reports claim negotiations are now close to be completed over a free transfer.That would leave a serious hole on the right-hand side for the Reds – which could be one of several positions they need to fill. Over the past 18 months Bradley has continued to show promise and has impressed whenever he’s been called upon by Slot – or previously Jurgen Klopp.He has had to bide his time behind Alexander-Arnold but Carragher is convinced the academy graduate is the man who should get the nod with a lack of world class right-backs currently on the market.READ MORE: Arne Slot’s five admissions on Trent Alexander-Arnold as Liverpool saga turns uglyREAD MORE: Milos Kerkez drops Liverpool transfer bombshell as he green lights summer moveHe previously said on Sky Sports: “When Liverpool have had Conor Bradley in the team this season, he’s looked the real deal, and I don’t think the right-back market this summer is alive with lots of amazing right-backs. So I think the way for Liverpool to go if Trent moves on is for Conor Bradley to be given his head, but also for Liverpool to buy a utility player who can play across the back-four, like what Joe Gomez has been in the past few years.”If Liverpool were to look outside the club for a new right-back then Juventus defender Andrea Cambiaso is among the players they’re reportedly considering. They may face strong competition from Manchester City for the Italian, reports La Gazzetta dello Sport.It is understood that the Premier League champions came close to signing Cambiaso in January, but a move did not materialise. Despite Juventus’ reluctance to lose Cambiaso he could still be on the move with the Serie A outfit able to demand a sum of around £50m given he has Premier League suitors.Liverpool are eyeing Jeremie Frimpong as a potential replacement for Trent Alexander-Arnold(Image: Jörg Schüler, Bayer 04 Leverkusen via Getty Images)Liverpool though have reportedly held initial talks over the signing of full-back Jeremie Frimpong from Bayer Leverkusen. He is one of Europe’s hottest properties and is understood to be of interest to the Reds with talks thought to be at an early stage.Frimpong came through the ranks at City but has made a huge impression at Leverkusen since joining them from Celtic in 2021 and has a Bundesliga title on his CV. The German side have largely kept hold on their top players since their success but Xabi Alonso’s exit this summer could change that.Join our new WhatsApp community and receive your daily dose of Mirror Football content.
