‘Their fans boo Mbappé and Vinícius’: Ex-Barcelona star warns Trent Alexander-Arnold against Real Madrid move | OneFootball

Former Barcelona midfielder Emmanuel Petit has on Wednesday sent a message of warning the way of Liverpool star Trent Alexander-Arnold, over the possibility of joining Real Madrid.

The name of defender Alexander-Arnold has of course long proven a prominent one in the Spanish media headlines.

This comes amid the widespread understanding that the right-back has been identified as a prime summer transfer target on the part of Real Madrid.

Ahead of the expiration of his contract with Liverpool in the summer, the 26-year-old has been earmarked as the ideal long-term replacement for Dani Carvajal.

Alexander-Arnold, for his part, is seen as keen on the move, a call which has left those of a Liverpool persuasion less than impressed.

Some outlets, in turn, have gone as far as to suggest that a deal between the parties is all but imminent.

One individual, though, of the opinion that TAA would be making a mistake in taking his talents to the Santiago Bernabéu is the aforementioned Emmanuel Petit.

Ex-Barcelona man Petit this week sat down for an interview with Samba Slots.

And when drawn on Alexander-Arnold’s potential Real Madrid switch, in quotes cited by The Mirror, the Frenchman did not hold back:

“My advice to Alexander-Arnold would be that he is about to win the Premier League again with Liverpool, he will always compete for the Champions League with Liverpool, why would you want to go and join Real Madrid in their current state?

“It’s a mess at Real Madrid and if you have one or two bad games, you get killed by the fans. You will have no support. It’s the opposite of that at Liverpool.

“At the moment they are booing Kylian Mbappé and Vinícius Junior! Alexander-Arnold will have to play well in every single game. I wish him luck if he does go over there but at the moment I can’t understand it.”
