Trent Alexander-Arnold may not return to Real Madrid’s starting lineup anytime soon, particularly now that Dani Carvajal is back in full swing following a long-term injury lay-off.
This takes an intriguing turn given how highly regarded Alexander-Arnold is and how long Real Madrid tried to win the race for his signature while he was at Liverpool.
Man City Keeping Tabs On Alexander-Arnold’s Situation
Even more interesting is that Manchester City are reportedly closely monitoring the situation.
The Cityzens have long admired Alexander-Arnold and have even made two previous attempts to get him: when he w as available on a free transfer in the summer and back when he was still a youth player at Liverpool.

According to Caught Offside, City could make an incredible bid for the 26-year-old in the January transfer window if he does lose his spot.
The England international has made seven appearances for Xabi Alonso’s team thus far, so this startling update comes extremely early in his Madrid career.
He was a vital member of Liverpool throughout his stay, and when he opted to leave Anfield at the end of the previous season after his contract expired, fans were heartbroken.
However, if the player’s circumstances don’t change quickly, this will likely be one to watch because Pep Guardiola could use a long-term replacement for Kyle Walker.
