Barcelona 'want' Trent Alexander-Arnold and 'will make £67m offer' to Liverpool

Barcelona 'want' Liverpool right-back Trent Alexander-Arnold, according to a report.

Fútbol Total claim that Barca are targeting the England international as their major signing of the 2023 summer transfer window in order to 'complete their squad'.

They add that the La Liga giants would offer €80m (£67m) for the Reds star, who is under contract until 2025.

For a player of Alexander-Arnold's talents and potential, that would be a frankly laughable amount. Not that Liverpool would be looking to sell - or the player looking to leave.

Alexander-Arnold came through the system at Anfield and has often spoken about how he sees himself as becoming a one-club man. The Academy product has won all there is to win with the Reds and became the youngest player to do so at the tender age of 23.

Liverpool have a history of selling players to Barcelona but Alexander-Arnold is very unlikely to force a move to Spain as he has spoken of his dreams to one day become the Reds captain. Javier Mascherano, Luis Suarez and Philippe Coutinho are players in the recent past who have made the switch.

Alexander-Arnold is expected to be among the Liverpool starting XI on Saturday lunchtime when Jurgen Klopp's side start their Premier League campaign at Craven Cottage when they take on Championship winners Fulham.
