Liverpool could still make money from Trent Alexander-Arnold departure, thanks to key FIFA rule change: report
Briefly

Trent Alexander-Arnold is on the verge of leaving Liverpool for Real Madrid as his contract nears expiration. Although he will become a free agent in July, FIFA's impending rule changes linked to the 2025 Club World Cup may enable Liverpool to secure a transfer fee for him before he officially joins Real Madrid. This is particularly relevant since Liverpool had previously rejected a £20 million offer for the player, hoping to generate revenue from their academy product before his departure.
