Liverpool are considering a move for Bayern Munich star Joshua Kimmich as a potential replacement for Trent Alexander-Arnold, according to reports. Alexander-Arnold has entered the last six months of his Liverpool contract and can talk to clubs outside England about signing on a free transfer.

Real Madrid has long been seen as the likely destination for the 26-year-old, with the Spanish club enquiring about the England international’s availability on the eve of the January transfer window. That approach was swiftly rebuffed by Liverpool who are said to be unwilling to sell one of their key players midway through the Premier League campaign.
Regardless, the Merseyside club will have to begin considering replacements for the full-back should he chose to depart Anfield at the end of the season. And according to German publication Bild, Liverpool are considering a move for Bayern stalwart Kimmich as a potential full-back replacement.
Kimmich – like Alexander-Arnold – faces an uncertain future at his long-time club and has just six months left on his contract with the German giants. The club and the 29-year-old have been locked in talks over a new contract to extend his stay at Bayern but have failed to reach an agreement as of yet.
Speaking back in December, Kimmich insisted that a resolution would be found in the coming months. ‘I will not wait until summer. I will sit down in winter and then try to see the bigger picture,’ he told told ZDF. ‘In January, I will make the right decision.’.
