Liverpool right-back Trent Alexander-Arnold has been spotted signing a Real Madrid shirt amid transfer rumours linking him with the Spanish giants.

That would be difficult any time, but particularly so when long-serving legendary manager Jurgen Klopp has just left, and when influential and important players like Mohamed Salah and Virgil van Dijk start to show signs of ageing and being past their best.
