Real Madrid news

Former Liverpool star Trent Alexander-Arnold was back at Anfield on Tuesday with Real Madrid in the Champions League and received a hostile reception from home supporters on Merseyside. The full-back's decision to leave his boyhood club at the end of last season and head to the Santiago Bernabeu enraged many fans who made their feelings known ahead of kick-off, but the player chose to see the funny side.

Jude Bellingham eclipsed Lionel Messi and his Real Madrid co-star Kylian Mbappe to make more Champions League history when taking on Liverpool on Tuesday evening. At just 22 years and 128 days old, the former Birmingham City prodigy smashed club legend Iker Casillas’s long-standing record as the youngest player in history to reach 50 appearances in Europe’s elite club competition. It is a staggering achievement for someone who has been commanding Real Madrid’s midfield like a veteran since his big-money move from Borussia Dortmund a few years back.

England boss Thomas Tuchel and his assistant Anthony Barry have opted to skip the chance to watch Jude Bellingham in action for Real Madrid against Liverpool at Anfield in the Champions League in another blow to the 22-year-old just days before the latest England squad is announced. Bellingham was omitted from Tuchel's most recent squad and will have to wait and see if he's done enough to earn a recall.

Trent Alexander-Arnold was labelled a "rat" as his famous Liverpool mural was vandalised ahead of the defender's return to Anfield with Real Madrid. After two decades in red, Alexander-Arnold’s exit in the summer left a bitter taste on Merseyside. Having joined Liverpool’s academy at just six years old, he went on to make 354 appearances and lift every major club trophy available.

Alexis Mac Allister's father has shed light on rumours linking the midfielder with Real Madrid and urged the Liverpool star to "do what he thinks best" regarding his future. Los Blancos have been looking to rebuild their midfield after the exits of Luka Modric and Toni Kroos, and reports from Spain claimed that Xabi Alonso had made Mac Allister a key target, admiring his composure and creativity under pressure.

Manchester City striker Erling Haaland is reportedly interested in a move to Spanish giants Real Madrid. The Norwegian forward is seen as a potential replacement for Brazilian star Vinicius Jr if he is sold at the end of the season. Madrid are understood to be open to offers of around €200 million should Vinicius decide against extending his contract with the club.

Jude Bellingham has been hailed as the "best player" at Real Madrid alongside Kylian Mbappe, but ex-Real Madrid star Pedja Mijatovic claimed that Arda Guler has established himself in the lineup as an undisputed starter, thanks to his lethal partnership with the French forward. The talented Turkish international has become one of Xabi Alonso's most trusted men after spending much of the 2024-25 season on the bench.

Real Madrid have reportedly decided to sell their forward Vinicius Junior following his outburst during El Clasico against Barcelona, marking a major shift in president Florentino Perez’s stance on one of the club’s biggest stars. The fallout with coach Xabi Alonso, coupled with repeated controversies, has pushed the Spanish giants to plan for a 2026 exit.

Former Bayern Munich defender Markus Babbel believes that Harry Kane is currently the most complete forward in world football, ranking him above Erling Haaland and Kylian Mbappe. Babbel claimed that he wouldn't have wanted to face the Englishman – who has scored a staggering 22 goals in 15 games this season – as a defender, while also hailing his all-round displays.

The list of top goal-scorers through the early weeks of La Liga's season is full of familiar faces. Kylian Mbappe is well out in front having netted 13 times in just 11 games, while Julian Alvarez, Vinicius Jr and Ferran Torres are among the chasing pack. But in amongst those household names is a player in Karl Etta Eyong who has emerged from complete obscurity to being on the transfer radar of Europe's biggest clubs; the true personification of a Hidden Gem...

Liverpool defender Virgil van Dijk was in contact with Real Madrid through his entourage last season regarding a potential free transfer in the summer. Van Dijk rejected offers from several other clubs, including Saudi Arabian side Al-Hilal, as his priority was to join Madrid. However, the Spanish side chose to look elsewhere and instead signed defender Dean Huijsen.
