Spanish giants Real Madrid have reportedly given up hope of bringing Trent Alexander-Arnold (26) to the club this winter after indications from the player that he would rather wait until the end of the season.
The Liverpool right-back was the subject of an offer to the Reds at the start of the transfer window.
However, Liverpool are not interested in selling him midseason, while Alexander-Arnold also wants to wait until the summer.
He can then join Real as a free agent, unless he signs a new Liverpool deal.
According to Revelo, Madrid believe that a deal to sign him in January is not worth pursuing.
They will instead park their interest in the summer and hope that Alexander-Arnold joins them.
