Real Madrid players have already made their feelings clear on Trent Alexander-Arnold after the first training sessions alongside their new team-mate, it has been reported.

Alexander-Arnold signed for Real on June 1, with Los Blancos paying a fee of £10 million to release him from his Liverpool contract early.

He was given the number 12 shirt, with La Liga restrictions banning him from selecting number 66, or anything above 25, as those are reserved for youth team players.

During his unveiling as a Real Madrid player last week, Alexander-Arnold went viral for completing his first speech in fluent Spanish - something which reportedly even came to the surprise of club executives that were present at the event.

The England international is set to be handed his first competitive start by manager Xabi Alonso when Real take on Al Hilal in the Club World Cup on Wednesday.

Alexander-Arnold has been training with his team-mates in the United States since their arrival last week.

And Spanish outlet AS report that existing Real stars have already come to a conclusion over the club's newest high-profile signing.

One of Alexander-Arnold's areas to improve has always been seen to be in one-on-one defending, but an inside source states that he has been 'like a beast' physically since his arrival at Los Blancos.

It is noted that there has already been confirmation that 'a Galactico has been signed', given Alexander-Arnold's immediate impact.

And he has left team-mates 'speechless' with his talents, particularly in attacking areas, with his personality and physique also given top marks.

He is working on 'adapting to his team-mates and assimilating the game's mechanics', while coaching staff are interestingly paying close attention to improving his corner-taking technique.

The report concludes by adding: "Trent has arrived like a rocket. In the medium term, a spectacular showdown with Carvajal is expected. Because a Galactico has arrived. It's a reality. He's making an impact."
