Alexander-Arnold Limited to Seven Appearances in First 13 Real Madrid Matches

Alexander-Arnold Limited to Seven Appearances in First 13 Real Madrid Matches

Trent Alexander-Arnold has made just seven appearances in Real Madrid's first 13 matches of the season, starting only four times and recording a single assist, according to a report by Spanish football reporter Elizabeth Conway.

The England international, who joined the Spanish giants on a free transfer from Liverpool, has found himself behind other options in the right-back position. The 26-year-old's limited playing time has raised questions about his role in Carlo Ancelotti's squad.

Alexander-Arnold's sole assist came in a La Liga fixture, but he has yet to establish himself as a regular starter. Real Madrid's congested fixture list across domestic and European competitions has provided opportunities for rotation, yet the former Liverpool vice-captain has not capitalized.

Conway's analysis, published on November 1, 2026, suggests the player may be considered a third-choice option at this stage of the campaign.
