Bellingham's funny confession about Alexander-Arnold: 'He's f...'

One of the additions that has had the most positive effects in Santiago Bernabéu locker room is Trent Alexander-Arnold. The former Liverpool player intended to leave Anfield Road at the end of his contract with the red club, but Real Madrid wanted to secure his services for the Club World Cup.

Given the situation, the white club's top executives were forced to pay about ten million euros to speed up a signing that is slowly integrating into Santiago Bernabéu locker room. He undoubtedly has the unwavering support of one of the squad's leaders: his compatriot and close friend Jude Bellingham.

The English "5" is one of the main beneficiaries of the arrival of the English right-back. Not only because of the personal bond that unites them, but also because of their great mutual understanding on the field, a connection that could make a difference on more than one occasion. Jude Bellingham made some very striking remarks about his new teammate after the match against Pachuca from Mexico.

The English all-rounder makes it clear that Real Madrid's new footballer "is a great guy". Bellingham has revealed an important dynamic currently present in the first team: "We're going to help him adapt as much as possible". That commitment established by the first-team players is especially significant for the Birmingham midfielder.

Maximum sincerity

After all, "It's great to have my best friend here, I'm very excited". Jude Bellingham admits he is happy about Trent Alexander-Arnold's arrival at Real Madrid, an addition that promises much more than just a tactical impact. Because the former "66" red is one of the best players in his position, with Dani Carvajal's permission.

That will be the main competition in the coming months. Trent Alexander-Arnold and Dani Carvajal will compete for the starting spot at right-back under Xabi Alonso's watchful eye, who is fully aware of the situation. The "2" from Leganés finishes his contract in the summer of 2026 and the British footballer has arrived in Madrid to carry out the "changing of the guard" in that position.

While that moment arrives, Trent Alexander-Arnold keeps adding starts as a Real Madrid player. Jude Bellingham keeps his position as an essential footballer in the white squad, so the English "5" is in very high spirits: He plays regularly and alongside his friend.

Many expect that this change in the first-team squad will have more positive effects on the British midfielder's performance. Not only in terms of morale, but also directly in footballing terms, as he regains his connections with the now "12" in white on the field.
