Trent Alexander-Arnold has admitted that it’s nice to finally get a win at the Bernabeu after ditching Liverpool for Real Madrid in the summer.

“It’s a surreal moment, you know [seeing his shirt in the Bernabeu],” he said.“Again, I’ve had a lot throughout my career, but that’s another huge one and another huge milestone for me.“To play at such an iconic stadium for the home team this time was much better than the away team.”He was then asked why it was much better, and he said: “Because I finally got to win at the stadium, I finally got a win at the Bernabeu.“Trent Alexander-Arnold could end up starting against Liverpool on TuesdaySince joining Alonso’s men, Alexander-Arnold likely hasn’t had as much game time as he would’ve wanted.
