Trent Alexander-Arnold's iconic No.

66 shirt, which he has donned throughout his club career, won't be an option for him at Real Madrid.

This move ensures that he will be eligible to play in the Club World Cup for Xabi Alonso's squad.

Although his contract with Anfield wasn't set to expire until June 30, he will be introduced by the La Liga titans on June 1.

Alexander-Arnold has signed a six-year contract that will see him remain at the club until 2031.

As an academy graduate, Raul Asencio is allowed to wear the N0.

On 5 May, he confirmed his intention to depart Liverpool at the end of his contract, shortly after the Reds clinched the Premier League title.

Although Liverpool were not anticipated to receive any compensation due to the Bosman ruling, they have managed to benefit from Real Madrid's eagerness to include him in the Club World Cup.

He will have some time to familiarise himself with his new environment before making his debut.

On 18 June, Real Madrid will take on Al-Hilal in the group stage of the Club World Cup, followed by further matches against Pachuca and Red Bull Salzburg.
