Real Madrid brought in Trent Alexander-Arnold on a long-term contract

Trent Alexander-Arnold's recovery is moving forward well, giving possibility that the Madrid defender could be fit soon enough to confront his former team Liverpool in the upcoming European match.

The English player experienced a hamstring injury while playing against Ligue 1 side Marseille in the initial phase of the competition on September 16.

Alexander-Arnold had to leave the pitch in the fifth minute, with early indications indicating a possible absence of up to six weeks.

Real Madrid are set to visit Liverpool on November 4 for the Champions League fixture—precisely seven weeks since the injury occurred.

Sources close to the situation suggest that the player's healing process is moving along well, and there is hope that Alexander-Arnold could achieve his first return to Liverpool's stadium after moving to Real Madrid in June.

A lifelong Liverpool fan, Alexander-Arnold previously stated that leaving the club he joined as a six-year-old academy talent was the "most difficult decision he has ever made."

During his time with the Reds, Alexander-Arnold made over 350 games, contributing to win multiple Premier League championships, a European Cup, and the domestic cup.

Since moving to the Spanish capital, Alexander-Arnold has featured five times across various tournaments, logging over two and a half hours of game time.
