Real Madrid have six points from a possible six at the start of the new La Liga season, enjoying an eventual 3–0 win over Real Oviedo on the road on Sunday night.

Trent started in five of Real Madrid’s six games in the USA at this summer's FIFA Club World Cup and appears to be Alonso's first-choice at right-back. However, the decision to name Dani Carvajal as captain following Luka Modric's exit, ramps up the pressure on the former Liverpool man.

Kylian Mbappe made sure that the Xabi Alonso era began with three points on Tuesday, as he won and scored a penalty in Real Madrid's 1-0 victory Osasuna at the Santiago Bernabeu.
