😬 “Much to correct” – Spanish media reacts to Trent’s shaky Real Madrid debut

Trent Alexander-Arnold’s Real Madrid debut didn’t exactly go to plan — and the Spanish press isn’t sugar-coating it.

The former Liverpool star made his first appearance in white as Real Madrid were held 1-1 by Al-Hilal in their Club World Cup opener. It wasn’t a disaster… but it also wasn’t a dream debut.

🇪🇸 According to Marca, Trent was caught sleeping early, losing his man before Al-Hilal had a goal ruled out for offside. They noted his “glove of a right foot”, but pointed out clear defensive lapses.

🗣 “There’s much to correct.”

🔥 Defensa Central gave him a 5/10, saying it was a “discreet debut” and that the heat clearly took its toll — with Trent subbed off after 65 mins looking gassed.

Madrid fans are hoping it’s just first-day jitters. But after costing $11.4m and replacing a fan favourite, the pressure is very real.

From booed at Anfield to questioned in Madrid – this new chapter might take a little longer to heat up.
