"Following tests carried out today on our player Trent Alexander-Arnold by the Real Madrid Medical Services, he has been diagnosed with a muscle injury in the rectus femoris of his left quadriceps. His recovery will be monitored," the club said in a statement on Thursday."
"Alexander-Arnold's debut season at the Bernabéu -- after joining from Liverpool in a high-profile move last summer -- has already been heavily disrupted by injuries. Having earned his place in the Madrid starting XI in the Club World Cup, he picked up a thigh problem in September, and was absent for a month. His absence came with Dani Carvajal also unavailable, meaning midfielder Federico Valverde had to fill in at right-back."
