Real Madrid’s Trent Alexander-Arnold has been out for a month, but the right-back has returned to training and could still be fit for the Champions League game against Liverpool at Anfield.<\/h2>\n

Xabi Alonso does not believe Trent Alexander-Arnold will recover from his injury in time for Real Madrid’s Champions League match against Juventus on Wednesday. The former Liverpool vice-captain returned to training ahead of the match, but had missed the past six games with a hamstring injury.<\/p>\n
In Tuesday’s pre-match press conference, Alonso confirmed he would provide a final fitness update to the media on Saturday. It was the day before they played against Barcelona in El Clasico.<\/p>\n
Real Madrid face the Reds at Anfield in two weeks’ time, a match that is being touted as Alexander-Arnold’s homecoming to his boyhood club.<\/p>\n

The England player is expected to be selected, although his participation was doubtful due to the blow he suffered against Marseille in mid-September.<\/p>\n
“I’m going to work on it day by day,” Alonso said. “Trent and (Dani) Carvajal have done some work. Looking ahead to tomorrow, I don’t think they will be ready.”<\/p>\n
Alexander-Arnold’s absence from the game against Juventus means he could be back for a maximum of two games before Madrid travel to Liverpool.<\/p>\n

The first game will be against Barcelona on Sunday, and the second game will be against Valencia a week later on Saturday.<\/p>\n
He appeared in just five games for Madrid, three of which lasted less than 10 minutes.<\/p>\n
The right-back started only half of his new club’s opening four league games this season, with Carvajal appearing in the remaining two.<\/p>\n
Alexander-Arnold made just five appearances off the bench in the Premier League last season.<\/p>\n
Despite ankle and hamstring injuries affecting his final season at Anfield, he managed to make 49 appearances in all competitions.<\/p>\n
