Trent Alexander-Arnold has hailed the quality of his new Real Madrid team-mates<\/p>\n
Trent Alexander-Arnold claims his early days as a Real Madrid player are “a lot different to what I’m used to” as he hailed the quality of his new team-mates. The right-back has just joined from Liverpool<\/a> as he embarks on a fresh challenge.<\/p>\n Alexander-Arnold has linked up with his new team for a small fee ahead of time so he can play for Real in the Club World Cup. The former Red has forged a reputation as among the best players in his position in the world<\/a> and is looking to acclimatise to a new environment.<\/p>\n He’s left the Premier League<\/a> champions and joined a team who, despite their poor season, were winning the Champions League<\/a> just over a year ago. He’s now rubbing shoulders with the likes of Jude Bellingham<\/a>, Kylian Mbappe and Vinicius Jnr.<\/p>\n Liverpool themselves were not short of star names with Mohamed Salah<\/a> their headline act, but Alexander-Arnold is now getting used to his new team-mates as he trains in the heat of the United States and gets to grips with a new philosophy.<\/p>\n He told the club’s website<\/a>: “Hot to start with but a good session with some good things. [It was] good to get a feel of the ball and a feel of the heat training in this climate so it was a good session.<\/p>\n READ MORE: Ryan Gravenberch makes Liverpool claim after winning league titles in three countries<\/a>READ MORE: Milos Kerkez’s dad reveals details on Liverpool transfer with two-word claim<\/a><\/p>\n “[It was] high quality. The ball moves very fast. Obviously it’s a lot different to what I’m used to in terms of the players and the style of play but it’s good and I’m enjoying the change and I’m enjoying being a part of it. It feels really good and I’m happy to be here to be honest.”<\/p>\n Alexander-Arnold’s decision to quit Liverpool divided opinion as the player expressed a desire to seek a new challenge. Many in red were frustrated that he allowed his contract to wind down, meaning the club couldn’t demand a big fee for him, as he was booed by some in the season’s final games.<\/p>\n Alexander-Arnold made headlines for speaking Spanish in his presentation as a Los Blancos player and has revealed he is able to communicate with his new team-mates in the language, but in an effort to make him feel welcome some are also chatting to him in English.<\/p>\n “I can’t say enough about the lads and how they made me feel welcome and at home,” he said. “They’ve all put in a lot of effort, spoken to me, made me feel comfortable and made sure any questions I had – especially with the translations and things – they’ve helped me a lot with everything. I can’t thank them enough and now we’re excited for the game to start.”<\/p>\n Join our new WhatsApp community<\/a> and receive your daily dose of Mirror Football content.
