Real Madrid want to sign Trent Alexander-Arnold in time for him to play in the Club World Cup this summer - despite the fact his Liverpool contract does not expire until 15 days after the tournament has started.
The right-back is contracted with Liverpool until the end of June, when he will become a free agent.
Real Madrid's opening game is against Al Hilal, who have a strong interest in signing Mohamed Salah if he leaves Liverpool, on June 18 in Miami.
FIFA is also allowing national associations of Club World Cup participating clubs to open a special transfer window between June 1-10 to sign and register players.
Clubs can also add a maximum of two players to their squad during an in-tournament window between June 27 and July 3.
