Trent Alexander-Arnold’s brother has thrown a spanner in the works with regard to the fullback’s Liverpool contract.
Fans may have been left scratching their heads at the right-back’s post-match antics as the Merseysiders celebrated a second English top-flight title win in five years.
A 5-1 win over Tottenham heaped further misery on Ange Postecoglou’s men.
Alexander-Arnold’s post-match social media activity saw the vice-captain share an inside look at the dressing room celebrations at Anfield.
What has Trent Alexander-Arnold’s brother posted online?
Marcell Alexander-Arnold will have had Liverpool fans on the edge of their seats with his latest Instagram story post.
It’s important to note that it’s the 26-year-old’s brother, Tyler, who currently acts as his agent.
That said, it would be delusional to suggest that Marcell has no idea about the current state of play with regard to a potential Anfield exit this summer.
Sharing Drake lyrics from 30 for 30 Freestyle – including the line ‘Banners are ready in case we need to retire your jersey’ – seems particularly suggestive and relevant to Trent’s current predicament.
A contract u-turn could be on the cards
Okay, there’s only so much we can reasonably look into when it comes to song lyrics. Marcell Alexander-Arnold is also perfectly entitled to post a photo celebrating his brother’s latest domestic success.
It could, we should note, be entirely coincidental.
That said, in the context of his expiring contract and the prospect of a move to Real Madrid, we can’t help but wonder…
Could our No.66 be considering extending his stay at Liverpool beyond the summer of 2025 (when his contract is due to expire)?
Could Trent Alexander-Arnold’s post-match chat with principal owner John W Henry have helped tip the scales in our favour?
Real Madrid are still confident
It’s a lot of ifs. Ultimately, sources close to Madrid, including respectable journalists like David Ornstein, have suggested a move to the Spanish capital is basically done.
Of course, it wouldn’t be the first time that one of Liverpool’s favoured sons turned down riches elsewhere. Perhaps, the emotions of a Premier League title win with the Merseyside giants have given him food for thought!
On that basis, Trent Alexander-Arnold is entitled to change his mind.

Yes is so obvious that I can never walk alone I keep telling people that we are the moving train no club can stop us it is just liverpool can stop themselves just as they did in champions league I was so disappointed with the level of play that faithful day. the carelessness of which I will not forget in hurry I wish they could move in victor Osimhen
All I can say is that not many Liverpool players who have left have become extremely successful or even successful players elsewhere. Liverpool don’t play has a team, Liverpool plays as a family
I,love Trent,why can’t you stay at Liverpool.
Trent,I follow you always.
This is the ultimate at clutching at straws, why would retiring his jersey mean he’s staying 🤷🏻
Leve and you will never be welcome back destroying your legacy real not worth that your already at the biggest club in the world lad wish you could c that before it’s too l8
I just hope Trent will understand better. The fact is that most players that left Liverpool for other clubs get derailed. I wish he could make a u-turn on his decision. Liverpool still needs him.
Trent alexander, please dont leave lfc. We love you.
Whatever TAA decides, he will always be revered.
The way Real Madrid behaved at the end of the Copa del Rey final should be ringing massive alarm bells for Trent.
Wish him luck
I really want Aaron to stay back 😭
Are we talking about the same person? Who is Aaron?
Trent, Liverpool is a big club and you are part of it’s success story. Kindly follow the footsteps of Steven Gerald, a legend at Anfield.
TAA we love you and wish you open your eyes before it’s too late.Love you.
I love you liverpool
Liverpool forever❤
You can take a horse to the river but you can not force horse to drink water. If he like let him stay , if he like let him go. If he is not careful he may not succeed in Madrid. Anceloti the coach is going, new manager may not like him
I wish you’d stay, Trent. Stick with Liverpool and build your legacy here. We love you, man.
Trent you know you are a Liverpool player and grew up at this club.You will surely just be another number at Real Madrid but at Anfield you are a master at what you do.Think very careful of those players that left Anfield for Real Madrid.You know what happened to them.Tje grass is not always greener on the other side
