As usual, Real Madrid have not established a definitive timeline on Alexander-Arnold’s injury, but it appears to be a classic hamstring injury which could keep him out around one month, knowing how tricky these are.
In the meantime, Dani Carvajal will be the starter, but the coaching staff will likely give him the opportunity to rotate often, given that he’s a veteran player coming off a serious injury. Players like Asencio or even Fede Valverde could now be Carvajal’s backup for that right-back spot until Trent comes back.
