Reports: Alexander-Arnold to Join Real Madrid This Summer
Rana Atef
On Monday, Trent Alexander-Arnold officially announced his departure from Liverpool.
The player said, "Giving everything day in, day out for 20 years, I've got to a point now where I feel like I need a new change, a new challenge for me as a player and as a person. And I think now is the right time for me to do that.'
He added, "It has been an amazing season. It has been amazing to be part of it and I just hope that everyone is able to maybe not dwell on this news for too long and be able to celebrate what the rest of the lads have done.'
Transfer market experts Fabrizio Romano and David Ornstein reported that Real Madrid would have managed to secure a verbal agreement with Liverpool's player.
They revealed that he will join the Santiago Bernabéu locker room during the next month of July.
Both journalists agree in pointing out that Trent Alexander-Arnold will arrive as a free agent at Real Madrid this summer.
Romano revealed in his social media post that Real Madrid's sports management proposed a five-year extended contract.

Australia on brink of World Cup after dramatic late winner - World
Australia moved to the brink of the World Cup after beating already qualified Japan 1-0 in Perth on Thursday thanks to Aziz Behich's 90th-minute winner. In front of a sell-out crowd of 57,226 at Optus Stadium, the Socceroos were outplayed for long periods by an inexperienced Japan side. But then Riley McGree cut the ball back to defender Behich, who rifled a bullet into the corner for his first international goal in 13 years and trigger scenes of jubilation. After beating Japan for the first time since 2009, Australia are all but assured of a berth at next year's World Cup in North America. Before the game the Socceroos had a three-point lead and a significantly better goal difference over Saudi Arabia with two matches left. The win does not totally guarantee Australia's passage, with Saudi Arabia at Bahrain later on Thursday. Australia face Saudi Arabia in Jeddah on June 10 in their final Group C match in the battle for second behind Japan. Teams that finish in the top two of the six-team group guarantee their automatic spot at the World Cup. After what had been a lacklustre performance for much of the game, Australia's last-gasp victory continued their turnaround since Tony Popovic was installed as coach in September. After becoming the first team to punch their tickets to the World Cup, Japan coach Hajime Moriyasu used the trip to Australia as an opportunity to experiment with his squad. Liverpool midfielder Wataru Endo and Real Sociedad's Takefusa Kubo started on the bench as Japan fielded three debutants in the starting line-up. Crystal Palace's Daichi Kamada, playing his 41st international, was considerably their most experienced starting player. But Japan's youngsters completely dominated the first-half with 21-year-old wing back Kota Tawaratsumida impressing on debut. It was only a matter of time before Japan had a clear-cut chance at breaking the deadlock, with Yuito Suzuki making an attempt from long range on the half-hour mark. Japan continued to attack with debutant Yu Hirakawa firing a bullet just wide of the left post after beating outstretched goalkeeper Mathew Ryan. The break arrived at an good time for Australia. After being substituted on in the 64th minute, Kubo curled past the right post, before Behich stepped up late on with his priceless goal.

Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease two 9-inch (23cm) round cake pans. 2. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. 3. In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to beat sugar and butter until light and fluffy. 4. Beat in eggs one at a time, followed by vanilla extract. 5.
