This of course comes after the latter was at last unveiled as a Real Madrid player.

Alexander-Arnold put pen to paper on terms at the Santiago Bernabéu late last month, ahead of the expiration of his contract at Liverpool.
The 26-year-old, though, was only officially presented in front of the media yesterday morning.
This came after Alexander-Arnold was called up by Thomas Tuchel for England's international meetings with Andorra and Senegal.
The right-back, on Thursday, was therefore full of smiles, after achieving what he considers a 'dream' move.
Messages of congratulations and warm wishes of welcome have since come pouring in for Alexander-Arnold, from across the world of football.

And as alluded to above, on Friday, adding his name to this list of well-wishers was none other than David Beckham.
Taking to the comments section of Alexander-Arnold's latest post on Instagram, ex-Real Madrid winger Beckham wrote:
'Congrats friend and welcome to a great club'

Ben Doak given Celtic transfer guarantee with Arne Slot stance on Liverpool deal clear
Liverpool wonderkid Ben Doak has been told he would be a regular starter for Celtic if he made a blockbuster return to the club this summer. The Scotland international is at a career crossroads after returning from a thigh injury that ruled him out for an extended period and cut his loan spell at Middlesborough short last season. The 19-year-old is highly-rated by the Premier League champions - who have previously knocked back £20million bids for the winger. READ MORE: Kairat dealt triple Celtic blow as visa issues cause chaos for Champions League bid READ MORE: Jamie Vardy handed Celtic transfer pitch as two deals reach endgame Another loan exit could be on the cards this summer to allow him to ramp up his game time away from Anfield - while Premier League sides Leeds United, Crystal Palace, Wolves and Everton also said to be pushing for a permanent deal. The Mirror report that boss Arne Slot would prefer Doak to leave on loan, and former Reds' star Didi Hamann reckons that a temporary switch to the Hoops - who he left in 2022 - could give the forward something vital for his career. Speaking to CasinoHawks, who have the latest casino sites, Hamann said: "Ben Doak's future depends on what Liverpool are planning for him because at his age, he needs to be playing. "If he goes to Celtic, I think he's pretty sure to probably start because Nicolas Kuhn went to Como. I think Celtic is a fantastic club." The Times report that Leeds - who are owned by 49ers Enterprises alongside Celtic's rivals Rangers - are among the club's eyeing a loan switch and have already expressed an interest in Doak. And Hamann reckons that a switch to Elland Road could be more beneficial than the prospect of Champions League football in Glasgow's east end. He went on: "In terms of progression as a player, the Premier League is probably the better place because he will get tested every week, more than he does in the Scottish league. "If Leeds really see him as one of the first 13 or 14 players, if he doesn't start, then he's one at least of the first ones to come on, then as a player, I would probably lean towards Leeds."

Nobel Mendy to Rangers transfer latest as two fresh details emerge
Defender Nobel Mendy has reportedly missed Real Betis training as he inches closer to a move to Rangers. The 20-year-old is set to become Russell Martin's 10th signing of the summer, with Gers set to pay around £3.5million to bring him to Ibrox. The left-sided defender has also been linked to fellow La Liga side Rayo Vallecano but the Senegalese player has his heart set on joining Rangers.

Marca claim that Betis had originally been pushing for 50 per cent sell-on clause to be made part of the deal. Earlier this week Betis director Manu Fajardo confirmed that they have received two offers from "major" clubs and that a deal to sell Mendy could be finalised imminently. Speaking at a press conference, he said: "As of today, we have two formal offers from two major clubs. The player's willingness will be important. We hope to finalise the deal in the next few hours."
