As of now, there’s no confirmation that the Kansas City Royals have finalized a long-term deal with Nolan Arenado. Recent reports suggest the Royals are considering a trade for the All-Star third baseman, who is still under contract with the St. Louis Cardinals through 2027. Arenado, a 10-time Gold Glove winner, has been a hot topic this offseason due to the Cardinals’ willingness to explore trade options amid a roster overhaul.
The Royals, having made significant progress in 2024, are reportedly interested in adding Arenado to solidify their infield and boost their lineup alongside rising star Bobby Witt Jr. However, Arenado’s hefty contract, with $74 million owed over the next three years, remains a potential obstacle. If a deal materializes, it will likely involve the Cardinals covering a portion of his salary.
