📸 Madrid unveil their new No 12: Trent Alexander-Arnold in white | OneFootball

It’s a special day for Trent Alexander-Arnold. After all, not every day does a player experience his unveiling with Real Madrid. Today, the Whites have officially presented their new signing to the public. A player who will wear the '12' for Real Madrid—a number once worn by a true club legend, Marcelo.

On Thursday morning, Trent Alexander-Arnold underwent his medical examination with the Whites and signed his new contract at the club’s offices in Ciudad Real Madrid, surrounded by his family and closest friends. The day continued with the traditional presentation ceremony, where Florentino Pérez, president of Real Madrid, welcomed the English player.

"The first thing I want to express is our gratitude, because we know what it means for you to play for Real Madrid. It’s something we will never forget," emphasized Florentino Pérez, addressing a visibly happy Trent Alexander-Arnold.

The English player gave his first words as a Real Madrid player. And he did so in perfect Spanish, without needing to look at any notes: "Thank you to both president Florentino Pérez and the club for this opportunity. Signing for a club like this doesn’t happen every day. I am very happy to be here. I am eager to show my game to the Madridistas, but I am aware that playing for Real Madrid is a great responsibility, but I am ready to give everything for the team and for the Madridistas. I am very eager to become a champion and to play and grow with the best in the world. Thank you and Hala Madrid."
