Trent Alexander-Arnold became a Real Madrid player in early June after Liverpool accepted a fee to release the defender from his contract ahead of schedule.

The 26-year-old had been with the Reds since joining his hometown club at the age of six.

During his time at Anfield, Alexander-Arnold won two Premier League titles, the Champions League, FIFA Club World Cup, UEFA Super Cup, FA Cup, and Carabao Cup.

He departed the club with an impressive record of 23 goals and 92 assists in 354 appearances.

On Tuesday night, Alexander-Arnold made his LaLiga debut as Real Madrid earned a narrow victory over Osasuna.

Although he had already featured five times for Los Blancos at the FIFA Club World Cup, where they reached the semi-finals under new head coach Xabi Alonso, this was his first competitive appearance at the Santiago Bernabéu.

He received a standing ovation from the home crowd when he was substituted for Dani Carvajal in the 68th minute.

Kylian Mbappe scored the only goal of the game from the penalty spot after being fouled in the box, sending goalkeeper Sergio Herrera the wrong way.

It marked Alonso’s first domestic match in charge, with Real starting their league campaign strongly.

Madrid, who finished second last season under Carlo Ancelotti, dominated proceedings and created several chances to extend their lead.

Defenders Dean Huijsen, also making his La Liga bow following a summer move from Bournemouth, and Éder Militão both forced saves from Herrera with long-range efforts.

There were also competitive debuts for £43m signing Álvaro Carreras from Benfica and teenage midfielder Franco Mastantuono.

Osasuna’s frustrations grew late on as Abel Bretones was shown a red card in stoppage time for a foul on Gonçalo García.
