Thomas Tuchel reveals why he thinks Trent Alexander-Arnold is a good fit for Real Madrid - as England boss makes request to fans over Liverpool departee's controversial move

England manager Thomas Tuchel has offered his verdict on Trent Alexander-Arnold's contentious move to Real Madrid.

The defender caused uproar among the Liverpool fan base when he revealed he would be leaving the club for Spain, with it initially looking like he would be departing for free after a 20-year stay at his boyhood club.

However, Arne Slot's side did secure a mega £10million fee from Madrid for Alexander-Arnold to join them early and therefore play in the upcoming Club World Cup.

Before then, the 26-year-old joined his England team-mates in Catalonia as they prepare for their third World Cup qualifier under Tuchel.
