Real Madrid: Alexander-Arnold sidelined for a long time
Real Madrid seemed set for a flawless evening at San Mamés after their emphatic victory over Athletic (0-3), but the euphoria quickly gave way to concern. Substituted as early as the 55th minute, Trent Alexander-Arnold felt a worrying pain. According to El Chiringuito, the diagnosis is alarming:
"Arnold's injury will last... he's practically saying goodbye to 2025."
A devastating blow for Xabi Alonso, who had counted on the English full-back as a key component of his system.

The match also saw Eduardo Camavinga leave the pitch, though the club remains more optimistic about the Frenchman. His substitution appears to have been more of a precaution than a cause for real alarm, raising hopes that his absence will be short-lived.
While the team's collective performance in Bilbao reassured the fans, these two injuries have cast a shadow over the evening. And Alexander-Arnold’s potentially lengthy absence could weigh heavily on Madrid’s ambitions for the rest of the season.
