Former Liverpool defender Trent Alexander-Arnold has chosen his shirt number at Real Madrid.

The English international ended his 20-year association with the Reds at the end of this season, after running down his contract.

Liverpool have since moved on from his exit and have signed his replacement in the form of Jeremie Frimpong.

The Dutchman arrives at Anfield as one of the best players in his position over the last two seasons, having won the domestic double with Bayer Leverkusen last year.

Meanwhile, Alexander-Arnold is set to feature in Real Madrid’s upcoming Club World Cup campaign, with his participation and early exit from Liverpool made possible by a reported €10m compensation Los Blancos paid the Reds to allow him leave early.

On Wednesday, Real Madrid announced that the 26-year-old and his unveiling will happen at 2:30 PM local time at Real Madrid City on Thursday, June 12.

The ceremony will follow the traditional appearance of president Florentino Pérez, will include a signing ritual, media address, as well as the skills show.

Madrid’s unveiling tradition has historically been marked by grandeur, like Kylian Mbappe’s 80,000-spectator crowd last summer.

But with the Bernabéu undergoing renovations, the event will occur at the training complex, mirroring Dean Huijsen’s low-key presentation earlier this week.

Ahead of the ceremony, the shirt number Alexander-Arnold will wear at Liverpool has been revealed.

According to reports, the former Liverpool defender will wear the No.

12 jersey at Real Madrid.

La Liga rules mean that Alexander-Arnold couldn’t keep his iconic No.

66 Liverpool jersey at Real Madrid, and he has now opted for the club’s No.

12.

Alongside that, it has been reported that he will have ‘Trent’ on the back of his shirt rather than ‘Alexander-Arnold’.

The number 12 was made iconic at Real Madrid by Marcelo, who won many trophies at the club wearing it.

Eduardo Camavinga wore the shirt for some time, but is now wearing the number 6 jersey.
