Trent Alexander-Arnold opts to stay at Real Madrid amid limited playing time

Trent Alexander-Arnold has expressed no intention of leaving Real Madrid in January, despite limited appearances. The English defender has made only four starts this season under manager Jose Mourinho, primarily due to competition for his position. He featured briefly in a 2-1 El Clasico win over Barcelona, coming on as a substitute in the final minute. Journalist Guillem Balague notes that Alexander-Arnold is focused on preparing for future opportunities with the team instead of seeking a transfer.
