Football transfer expert, Fabrizio Romano, has ruled out the possibility of Trent Alexander-Arnold leaving Real Madrid during the January transfer window.

The England international had reportedly attracted interest from Chelsea, with suggestions that he could join the Premier League club on loan or return to his former side, Liverpool.

Alexander-Arnold joined Real Madrid from Liverpool last year but has struggled to secure regular playing time under manager José Mourinho this season.

Former Chelsea defender Glen Johnson had recently urged the London club to pursue a move for the right-back when the transfer window reopens in January.

However, Romano has dismissed the speculation, maintaining that the 28-year-old has no intention of leaving the Spanish giants.

In a post on X, the transfer journalist stated that Alexander-Arnold was prepared to remain at Real Madrid and compete for his place in the team.

"Trent has no plans to leave Real Madrid in January," Romano wrote.

The development suggests that the defender is committed to continuing his career at the Santiago Bernabéu despite his limited appearances under Mourinho.
