Carvajal is expected to miss between two to three months with this injury, so Trent Alexander-Arnold will need to step up and prove why Real Madrid signed him as a free agent. Valverde will likely be the backup once Alexander-Arnold establishes himself in the XI.
Alexander-Arnold has just recovered from a muscle injury and could get some minutes as early as this upcoming weekend, when Real Madrid will host Valencia in yet another crucial La Liga game after the decisive 2-1 win over Barcelona in Sunday’s El Clásico.
