Liverpool’s summer transfer plans may take a dramatic turn as uncertainty looms over Trent Alexander-Arnold’s future.
Real Madrid are reportedly making a strong push to lure the 26-year-old to the Bernabéu on a free transfer next summer.
With the possibility of losing their star right-back, Liverpool are exploring alternative options, and a surprise name has emerged: Nottingham Forest versatile full-back, Ola Aina.
Aina, 28, has been one of Forest’s standout performers this season, playing a key role under Nuno Espírito Santo.
The Nigerian international has cemented himself as a reliable Premier League right-back, making 28 appearances and scoring twice.
Aina’s experience could provide Liverpool with the depth they need, but they may face competition from Manchester City, who are also monitoring him.
Forest are also keen to extend his contract, but if negotiations stall, a move could be on the cards.
