Trent Alexander-Arnold Injures Leg Days Before Real Madrid Face Manchester City In UEFA Champions League

Trent Alexander-Arnold has injured his left leg days before Real Madrid face Manchester City in the UEFA Champions League.

The England right back hurt an upper left leg muscle. He exited a 3-0 win at Athletic Bilbao early in the second half on Wednesday.

The former Liverpool player was sidelined for around six weeks this season due to a different left leg injury. Alexander-Arnold made four consecutive starts for Xabi Alonso's side before this latest setback.

The club did not indicate on Thursday how long it expected Alexander-Arnold to be out.

Madrid host Celta Vigo in La Liga on Sunday and welcomes City three days later in the Champions League.

Madrid's other right back, Dani Carvajal, was also unavailable after requiring arthroscopic surgery on his right knee.
