Trent Alexander-Arnold brought to an end what many would call a fairytale career at his boyhood club last summer as he departed Liverpool for La Liga giants Real Madrid.

In 2025/26, he has managed 2 assists in 18 appearances in all competitions, remarkably low numbers for what we became accustomed to seeing at Liverpool. However, he has currently worked his way ahead of Dani Carvajal, despite the veteran recently returning from injury.
