The Spanish giants signed Trent Alexander-Arnold on a multi-year contract
Trent Alexander-Arnold's recovery is advancing according to plan, raising possibility that the Real Madrid right-back might return in time to play against his old team Liverpool in the upcoming Champions League tie.
The 27-year-old player experienced a muscle injury during a match against French side Marseille in the group stage of the competition on September 16.
Alexander-Arnold was forced off the pitch in the early stages, with early indications suggesting a potential layoff of as long as a month and a half.
Real Madrid are set to face Liverpool on November 4 for the European match—exactly over a month since the incident happened.
Sources familiar with the player's condition state that the player's healing process is moving along well, and there is hope that Alexander-Arnold might make his first appearance to Anfield after moving to Real Madrid in the summer.
A longtime Liverpool fan, Alexander-Arnold previously remarked that departing from the club he entered as a six-year-old youth player was the "most difficult choice he's ever made."
During his time with the Reds, Alexander-Arnold notched 354 games, contributing to win multiple English top-flight titles, a Champions League, and the FA Cup.
Since moving to the Spanish capital, Alexander-Arnold has played on five occasions in all competitions, totaling 156 minutes of action.
