Real Madrid are believed to be keeping tabs on another Liverpool defender amid their persistent interest in Reds star Trent Alexander-Arnold, according to reports.
Los Blancos made a significant move for the academy graduate when they tabled a £20million offer for him in January, just six months before his contract is set to expire.
Liverpool turned down the offer, but have not made public progress with tempting the 26-year-old into signing a new deal.
Arne Slot has repeatedly fielded questions about Alexander-Arnold's future at Anfield - which has grown no clearer since the end of the January window - with the manger forced to stress that contract uncertainty at the club had not impacted the internal dynamics of his side.
