Trent Alexander-Arnold might struggle to reclaim a starting spot at Real Madrid after Dani Carvajal's return to full fitness. The England full-back has made only seven appearances for Xabi Alonso's side so far. Manchester City have monitored the situation and could pursue him if playing time diminishes. City previously contacted him twice: once when he was a free agent in the summer and once during his youth at Liverpool. A January transfer bid is a possible outcome if Trent loses his place. The player left Liverpool after running down his contract, and a swift return to the Premier League could upset Reds supporters.
Reports are coming in from Spain suggesting that Trent Alexander-Arnold might not find his way back into Real Madrid's starting XI anytime soon, especially now that Dani Carvajal is back in full swing. It's an interesting twist to this saga, considering how highly regarded Trent is, and how long Real Madrid worked on winning the race for his signature while he was at Liverpool.
What's even more intriguing is that Manchester City are now understood to be keeping a close eye on this situation. They've been admirers of Trent for a while now, even reaching out to him twice in the past. Once was during the summer when he was available on a free transfer, and back when he was still a youth player at Liverpool. If Trent does lose his his spot then Manchester City could make sensational bid for the player in the January transfer window.
This shocking update from Spain comes very early in Trent's Madrid career, with the England international only making seven appearances for Xabi Alonso's side so far. He'd been a key player at Liverpool, and fans were devastated when he ran down his contract and decided to leave Anfield at the end of last season. Just imagine the pain for Reds supporters if Trent now returns quickly to the Premier League to sign for their rivals City!
