Jose Mourinho is reportedly considering playing Trent Alexander-Arnold in midfield for Real Madrid, going against Jurgen Klopp's past advice. The 27-year-old, who joined Madrid more than 14 months ago, will begin his second season under Mourinho. Alexander-Arnold's potential alteration follows the collapse of Real Madrid's bid for Spain international Rodri, with Mourinho having already experimented with the concept in pre-season.
