Trent Alexander-Arnold is in for a lengthy spell on the sidelines after suffering a hamstring injury against Marseille.
Alexander-Arnold’s Champions League debut for Real Madrid ended nearly as soon as it began. The England international managed just three passes before he pulled up, clutching the back of his left thigh with visible discomfort.
After a quick assessment from the medical staff, Alexander-Arnold was forced to come off the pitch just five minutes into the match. Less than 24 hours later, Real Madrid confirmed the fullback sustained a muscle injury to the biceps femoris in his left leg.
Xabi Alonso will now have to get by without his blockbuster signing for some of the biggest matches of Los Blancos’ early 2025–26 season.
