TRENT ALEXANDER-ARNOLD will not be able to drive his Range Rover into Real Madrid training.
The full-back, 26, has penned a six-year deal with the Spanish giants.
Alexander-Arnold is said to have regularly driven a £130,000 Range Rover to Liverpool’s training centre.
But per Spanish outlet El Motor, the England star will be forbidden to do so by his new club.
Real Madrid have a lucrative sponsorship deal with BMW.
As part of the arrangement, the club’s first team players are all gifted a BMW motor each season.

Trent Alexander-Arnold’s BMW options
By Michael Golson, Sun Motors correspondent
With Trent being forced to garage his beloved Range Rover and potentially switch to a BMW, Real Madrid’s newest Englishman still has some excellent options if he’s keen on another stylish and luxurious SUV.
The obvious choice is the top-of-the-range BMW X7 M60i, which, much like the Range Rover P530, is powered by a 4.4-litre V8 twin-turbo engine. It also combines the very best in luxury, comfort and endless interior space.
There’s also the BMW X5 M50i. While it lacks the same off-road capability as the Range Rover, it matches it in terms of on-road performance and dynamics – particularly with its sporty handling.
Currently in its fourth generation, the X5 is slightly smaller than the Range Rover but just as popular, thanks to its meticulously finished cabin and BMW’s highly regarded curved screen, perfect for all of the Liverpudlian’s infotainment needs.
