Trent Alexander-Arnold in the Spotlight: Will He Stay at Real Madrid or Return to the Premier League?
The English full-back failed to establish himself at the Bernabéu, was left out of the national team, and his future is generating speculation.
The arrival of Alexander-Arnold at Real Madrid
The signing of Trent Alexander-Arnold by Real Madrid in 2025 seemed destined to boost his career. With two Premier League titles, a Champions League title, and a national cup, the English fullback arrived at the Santiago Bernabéu as an established star. However, competition with other players and difficulties in regaining his form made it difficult for him to adapt.
Out of England and without a place in Madrid
In the 2025-26 season, he barely played 21 La Liga games, a record that reflects doubts about his performance. Real Madrid fans are still waiting for him to show the version that made him a star at Liverpool.
The hardest blow came with the English national team. Tuchel left him out of the squad for the big tournament in North America, a decision that fueled speculation about his immediate future
The rumors
Danny Murphy, former Liverpool and England player, analyzed the situation: “We players always feel that. When you leave, you ask yourself: 'What have I done?'” According to him, Alexander-Arnold is not panicking, although he surely had some difficult nights. He is confident that the summer will be key for him to prepare and regain his level in the next season.
Regarding a possible return to the Premier League, Murphy was clear: he sees it as difficult for him to return to Liverpool because of the way he left and his high salary. Even so, he believes that he will remain in Madrid for a while longer, although he does not rule out the possibility of returning to England in the future.
