Roberto Carlos welcomes Trent Alexander-Arnold to Real Madrid with hilarious advice as new signing makes first public appearance at Spanish Grand Prix after £10m Liverpool exit
Trent Alexander-Arnold made his first public appearance as a Real Madrid player in style this weekend – attending the Spanish Grand Prix in Barcelona, where he shared a memorable moment with club legend Roberto Carlos. Alexander-Arnold announced last month that he would indeed be leaving Liverpool at the end of the season , bringing an end to a near season-long saga and confirming the worst-kept secret in football. And the move was officially announced this week after Real Madrid elected to pay a £10million fee to complete the move early in order to have the England international in time for the beginning of their Club World Cup campaign later this month. The 26-year-old made his first appearance as a Real player after he was spotted in the VIP paddock at the Spanish Grand Prix in Barcelona on Sunday, where he ran into none other than Real Madrid legend Roberto Carlos. The meeting between the past and present of full-back royalty quickly went viral after Carlos was seen offering some tongue-in-cheek advice to the new Bernabeu recruit. 'You only need three words here,' Carlos joked to Trent, patting him on the back. 'Good morning, good night, and my friend… and that's it!' Trent Alexander-Arnold shared a moment with Real Madrid club legend Roberto Carlos Both men laughed as cameras captured the exchange, with Alexander-Arnold clearly enjoying the light-hearted moment with one of the game's greats. The right-back was among a number of England players that attended the Spanish Grand Prix, with the likes of Harry Kane, Jue Bellingham and Bukayo Saka also in attendance. England will play their third game of the Tuchel era next weekend when they take on Andorra in Barcelona at the home of RCD Espanyol. And with the saga surrounding his move away from Liverpool finally having come to an end, Alexander-Arnold will link up with his new team-mates before flying out to the United States in a fortnight to be part of the revamped Club World Cup. The year's tournament features 30 teams for the first time, with Madrid the early favourites to lift the trophy. Madrid get their campaign underway on June 18 when they face a Al-Hilal side featuring the likes of Aleksandar Mitrovic, Ruben Neves and Kalidou Koulibaly. They will then face Mexican side Pachuca four days later before rounding out their group against Red Bull Salzburg on June 26.

New coach and chance to win Ballon d'Or: what awaits Trent at Real
Roberto Carlos always said he was a game away from winning the Ballon d'Or at Real Madrid, before Ronaldo went and won Brazil the World Cup. By scoring twice in the final against Germany in 2002, Ronaldo became the automatic pick as the best player in the world and Roberto Carlos, Brazil and Real Madrid's explosive left back, knew he had to settle for second. Trent Alexander-Arnold should believe he can go one better, at the club where there have been more Ballon d'Or winners than any other. He will be up against it, of course, given England would almost certainly have to win the World Cup next year and Real Madrid triumph in the Champions League, although both are possible. Even then, there is
