Liverpool make plans to replace Trent Alexander-Arnold

According to Fichajes, Liverpool are planning to make a move for Celta Vigo defender Oscar Mingueza to replace Trent Alexander-Arnold.

The Reds are preparing for life without Alexander-Arnold, who could leave the club after entering the final year of his contract at Anfield.

Real Madrid have been linked with a move for the Liverpool star and despite the club feeling that the player will prioritise signing a new deal at the club, they are preparing for the worst case scenario.

Celta defender Mingueza is a product of the famous Barcelona academy La Masia. He made his debut for Barca back in 2020 but after failing to secure his place in the team, he was allowed to leave Camp Nou in 2022.
