Trent Alexander-Arnold has been ruled out of Real Madrid's match against Paris Saint-Germain in the Club World Cup semi-final due to a muscle discomfort in his right leg sustained during training. The injury occurred during the team's last training session in Palm Beach, causing a setback that prevented him from being included in the squad or even on the bench for the game. As a result, Fede Valverde has been named to start at right back in Alexander-Arnold's absence. Despite missing the match, Alexander-Arnold attended the stadium to support his teammates. The injury was confirmed by multiple sources, including Real Madrid's official channels and sports journalists covering the event.
