Real Madrid right-back Trent Alexander-Arnold is closing in on a return to action, with reports from Marca suggesting that his recovery is “proceeding well.” The Englishman, who has been sidelined with a muscle injury, is expected to be back in around two weeks, giving Los Blancos a major boost ahead of a crucial run of fixtures.
According to the Spanish outlet, Real Madrid’s medical staff remain confident that Alexander-Arnold will be fully fit after the international break. The primary goal, as per the report, is to have him 100% ready for El Clásico, which is scheduled to take place later this month.
Since joining Real Madrid in a high-profile move from Liverpool during the summer, Alexander-Arnold has quickly adapted to life in Spain, adding creativity and tactical depth to Xabi Alonso’s setup. His ability to dictate play from deep and deliver pinpoint crosses has been sorely missed in recent weeks, with Dani Carvajal filling in at right-back.
