Dani Carvajal's recent injury has caused a crisis in the defensive department at Real Madrid. The Spaniard will miss the remainder of the season, and it looks like the club will be attacking in the January transfer window to fix their main problem in the squad. Spanish media have already reported that the leaders of the Spanish club are monitoring Liverpool's talented defender, Trent Alexander-Arnold.
Initially, Madrid were said to sign Trent next season, as the player would be a free agent and could join Real at zero cost. However, the rather difficult situation in defense has left the Galaxy with no solution, as approaches in January seem inevitable.
The club's president, Florentino Perez, does not like to sign new players during the winter market, and it should be noted that Madrid haven't spent on a player in January in the last 6 seasons. This includes last season where the club faced a similar injury situation.
Liverpool are keen to let go of Trent Alexander-Arnold, especially considering they could lose the player for nothing at the end of the season. Meanwhile, the defender of the English national team is said to be ready to join Real Madrid. The player will join Jude Bellingham, who is also said to have been a factor in Arnold's desire to play at the Santiago Bernabeu.
At the same time, Real Madrid is trying to advance the transfer of Alphonso Davies from Bayern Munich. Davies is unlikely to leave Bayern in January, but a summer move to Spain looks ever closer, given the Galaxy's need for names that offer experience and security at the back.
