No one expected what Alexander-Arnold has done at his presentation: total surprise

The new Real Madrid signing has already been presented, but no one expected what happened

Alexander-Arnold is now a Real Madrid player in every sense. After a lifetime at Liverpool, where he established himself as one of the best full-backs in the world, he's starting his new adventure at the most demanding stadium: BernabƩu. The fans of the white club are used to excellence, so the new signing will have to adapt quickly to the club's instructions.

This morning, his official presentation took place and, in fact, nobody could have expected what happened. Alexander-Arnold arrived early at the Sanitas clinic for the famous medical examination and later met with Florentino PƩrez to introduce himself to the media.

The anticipation in the press room was overwhelming, and for good reason, since Alexander-Arnold generates a lot of excitement among Madrid's supporters. Media outlets from all over the world gathered in Valdebebas and weren't disappointed. Nobody could have imagined what ended up happening.

Alexander-Arnold makes a perfect start at Real Madrid

Historically, signings like Alexander-Arnold's have caused a lot of doubts around Real Madrid. There's an urban legend that English players never quite adapt to Spanish culture and that they struggle more than expected. Bellingham broke the mold last year, but what Alexander-Arnold just did is on another level.

The fact is, Real Madrid's new signing appeared in the press room and, to everyone's surprise, addressed the audience in Spanish. Alexander-Arnold confirmed that he's been studying the language for months. It's a very significant gesture for his presentation day and shows how eager he is to succeed at BernabƩu.

Alexander-Arnold and Dani Carvajal, the best right flank in the world

With Alexander-Arnold's arrival and Dani Carvajal's recovery, there are no more doubts. Real Madrid has the best right flank in the world. Whether offensively or defensively, Xabi Alonso has more than enough options to handle any situation.

It's still not clear whether the starter will be Dani Carvajal or Alexander-Arnold, but it's obvious that, whoever plays, will cause problems for the opponent. For now, Trent, as will appear on his jersey, will have the opportunity to play in the Club World Cup and show his talent. However, he can't let his guard down, since Carvajal is almost fully recovered and promises to put up a strong fight.
