Trent Alexander-Arnold has been joined by girlfriend Estelle Behnke as he was officially presented for the first time as a Real Madrid player.
Alexander-Arnold has joined the Spanish giants following the expiry of his Liverpool contract, with Real paying a transfer fee so he can take part in the Club World Cup this summer. The defender bid farewell to Liverpool at the end of the Premier League season.
He was presented to the media in Madrid on Thursday, when it was confirmed he will wear the No.12 jersey and don his first name on the back of his shirt.
Throughout his Anfield career, Alexander-Arnold consistently wore the No. 66, but he can't wear the same number in Spain.
This is due to La Liga rules stipulating that first-team players must wear a shirt number between one and 25, with Nos. 13 and 25 specifically reserved for goalkeepers.
Alexander-Arnold, who had been away with England for matches against Andorra and Senegal, has been dating model girlfriend Esetelle since October 2024. She has over 75,000 followers on Instagram and recently shared images of a trip to Beverly Hills.
The right-back took a romantic break at the exclusive £6,000-per-night ($7,500) Soho Farmhouse in the Cotswolds with Estelle last year. They were also spotted dining out at celebrity haunt Cibo in Hale, Cheshire.
Alexander-Arnold and his partner roused suspicion over their links as eagle-eyed fans noticed they had both tagged themselves in separate posts from the private members’ club during their getaway to the Cotswolds. He had previously dated Iris Law, the daughter of actor Jude.

Trent’s previous romance with Iris became public knowledge in April 2024 when they were snapped enjoying a drink together on the fashionable Portobello Road in Notting Hill. The couple were then spotted on a date in Monte Carlo, Monaco.
They met filming an advert for Guess Jeans, who both of them work for as ambassadors. Their brief relationship saw them feature in connecting social media posts and spending time away on lavish vacations.
Despite their relationship coming to an end, it’s said that the two still remain friends with them both focusing on their respective careers which implicated their time spent together.
After confirming his decision to leave Liverpool, Alexander-Arnold said: "I'm just eternally grateful for everything that I've been given. We all dream of these moments but, for me, it feels even more special because I've been here 20 years.
"It's an amazing chapter of my life - it's been my whole life - it's been everything I've ever worked for - dreamt for."
