Trent Alexander-Arnold has called his move to Real Madrid a ‘dream come true’ after being formally presented at the Spanish side.
Alexander-Arnold has completed his transfer to Real Madrid from Liverpool and is set to debut when the Spaniards take on Al-Hilal in their Club World Cup opener this month.
The 26-year-old has signed a long-term contract with Los Blancos and will wear the number 12 shirt at the Bernabeu. His new shirt will also emblazon ‘Trent’ rather than Alexander-Arnold.
Speaking in Spanish at his unveiling, the England international said he is looking forward to the challenge and expressed his excitement at ‘playing alongside the best players in the world’ in the Spanish capital.
“It’s a dream come true. I’m very happy and proud to be here,” the right-back said.
“I want to show Real Madrid fans how I play. I do realise I am signing for Real Madrid, the demands are high. I’m going to give my all for Real Madrid and the fans.
“I want to win many titles. I want to be a winner here and playing alongside the best players in the world.
“Hala Madrid.”
Real Madrid president Florentino Perez said his side have signed a ‘legend’ in Alexander-Arnold, who won two Premier League titles and the Champions League among his honours at Liverpool.
“We’ve signed a legend, one of the best in the world. Trent’s dream has come true. You have chosen to play for Real Madrid, the biggest club in the world.
“We have a great relationship with Liverpool, they are our dear friends.”
