TThe derby between Real Madrid and Atlético Madrid, won by Álvaro Arbeloa’s side, began with a surprise addition to the starting XI: Carvajal, replacing Trent, who had established himself on Madrid’s right flank.
As exclusively reported by MARCA, the former Liverpool player was late for one of the training sessions that week and Arbeloa punished him by putting him on the bench against the Santiago Bernabéu. The first captain took his place, but Trent ended up entering the pitch in the 64th minute and was the key to the 3-2 play, which was scored by Vinicius shortly afterwards.
After the game, Trent posted a candid message on his social networks, making clear his commitment to the team despite the episode. “Madrid, nothing else,” the Real Madrid player posted on a photo of a merry-go-round, to which Vini himself responded. “My man, T,” the Brazilian wrote.
Trent, who has been left out of Thomas Tuchel’s squad once again, will be one of the players left out during this international break.
