Real Madrid: Trent Alexander-Arnold faces potential eight-week absence as hamstring injury puts Anfield return in doubt
"Trent Alexander-Arnold is reportedly facing six to eight weeks on the sidelines and could miss Real Madrid's Champions League clash with Liverpool after the club confirmed the England international had suffered a hamstring injury. Alexander-Arnold, who controversially decided to leave Liverpool to join Madrid at the end of last season, was withdrawn in the fifth minute of Los Blancos' 2-1 win over Marseille on Tuesday."
"While Madrid have not announced a timeline for Alexander-Arnold's return, Marca reports he is set to miss at least six weeks and could be out for two months, putting a return to Anfield in the Champions League in doubt. Madrid are unbeaten so far this season, but Alexander-Arnold has started only three games and has attracted scrutiny for his performances for the LaLiga leaders to this point."
"He will be unavailable for the Madrid derby with Atletico Madrid on September 27, while Alexander-Arnold is also unlikely to be ready for the first Clasico of the season against Barcelona on October 26. In the Champions League, Alexander-Arnold will miss out on facing Kairat and Juventus. If he does indeed need eight weeks to recover, Alexander-Arnold will be a spectator for the clash between Madrid and Liverpool at Anfield on November 4."
Trent Alexander-Arnold suffered a muscle injury to the biceps femoris in his left leg and was withdrawn in the fifth minute of Real Madrid's 2-1 win over Marseille. Real Madrid medical services diagnosed the hamstring injury after tests. Marca reports he could miss at least six weeks and possibly up to two months. An eight-week absence would rule him out of multiple LaLiga fixtures, the Madrid derby, the first Clasico, and Champions League games against Kairat, Juventus and Liverpool at Anfield. Alexander-Arnold has started only three games this season and has faced scrutiny for his performances. He should be fit for England's November World Cup qualifiers.
