Alexander-Arnold has been in talks with Los Blancos and, it’s claimed, he has agreed a long-term deal worth around £250k-a-week – which will be topped up by a huge eight-figure signing bonus.He, like Virgil van Dijk and Mo Salah, have been allowed to run down their contracts on Merseyside, with all three able to walk away in the summer if they choose – although it’s understood both Van Dijk and Salah prefer to stay put.But Neville is simply stunned that the club’s owners, Fenway Sports Group, have let this happen, particularly at a time when the Premier League leaders are on the verge of landing the title.READ MORE: ‘I played for Liverpool in a Champions League final – leaving the club is my biggest regret’READ MORE: Gary Neville loses his rag at Jamie Carragher as Sky Sports pundits clash: “Absolute tool!”Speaking on the ‘Stick to Football’ podcast, Neville said: “A couple of years ago around the time where Virgil Van Dijk was going through a patch where he was teetering a little bit and (Mo) Salah was there, they looked at them and thought, ‘we’ll wait with you,’. And the players are probably holding that against them now.”With Trent, it’s unforgivable. Whether you’re going through a turbulence in the boardroom or not, if you’re the owner of the club and you look at Trent two years ago, even if you have disruption in your sporting department, you look at him and think, ‘we’ve got to sign him up, he’s one of our own.'”Trent Alexander-Arnold looks set to join Real Madrid(Image: Getty Images)Neville however has warned Alexander-Arnold that the grass may not be greener in the Spanish capital – because, with Dani Carvajal and the supremely-versatile Fede Valverde both in situ, he may struggle to get into Carlo Ancelotti’s team.He added: “I said that I thought he had to get more serious about his defending. I’ve said that constantly, or else it will cause him problems. I think it will cause him a problem at Real Madrid, because they have Federico Valverde, who is playing right-back currently, and Dani Carvajal when he’s back.”He’s going to have some serious competition. They are brilliant players, and he’s going to find it tough there.”Join our new WhatsApp community and receive your daily dose of Mirror Football content.
