Trent Alexander-Arnold ruled out until November
Real Madrid have confirmed that Trent Alexander-Arnold will be sidelined with a hamstring injury sustained during their dramatic 2-1 victory over Olympique de Marseille in the opening round of the UEFA Champions League group stage.
The 26-year-old England international was forced off just five minutes into the clash at the Santiago Bernabéu, raising immediate concerns over his fitness. Today, the Spanish giants released an official statement providing clarity on the injury.
“Following medical tests carried out by the Real Madrid Medical Services, our player Trent Alexander-Arnold has been diagnosed with a muscle injury to the hamstring in his left leg. His recovery will be monitored,” read a club announcement published on Real Madrid’s official website.
While the club has not confirmed a specific recovery timeline, reliable Spanish journalist Arancha Rodríguez reports that the right-back is expected to be out of action for approximately six to eight weeks, which could keep him sidelined until early November.
