Real Madrid: 3 reasons why Liverpool’s Trent Alexander-Arnold is a dream target

HE WILL BE AN ASSET OFF THE FIELD AS WELL
Although Gareth Bale can be considered a player that has brought British interest towards La Liga in recent years, it has truly been several years since Real Madrid had an English player as one of their poster boys. Trent Alexander-Arnold has already achieved that much fame and status to become one even at a club like Real Madrid, and that will have its benefits off the field.
The 23-year-old is someone who is very highly regarded in the Premier League and in England and the fanbase will certainly shift to watching La Liga and particularly Real Madrid if a player of his calibre switches pastures. There will never be another Lionel Messi or Cristiano Ronaldo, so other superstars can be used by La Liga to promote the league in foreign countries in the future too.
It is not often that defenders are fan favourites and the kind of players who sell many shirts, but again Alexander-Arnold could bridge that gap due to his impact at Liverpool or the Premier League as a whole- which has given him unparalleled praise in recent months. The English international will yield enough money through his marketability to pay back a hefty transfer fee.
