- Benched against Atletico Madrid on Sunday for lateness to training, he came on after the hour and set up Vinicius Junior in a 3-2 win.
- Thomas Tuchel left him out of England's 35-man squad for friendlies against Uruguay and Japan, saying he prefers right-backs with a different profile.
- Spanish outlet Marca reported the lateness and described Alvaro Arbeloa's call as a show of dressing-room discipline.
- El Motor reports that Real Madrid's BMW sponsorship bars non-BMW cars at the training ground, which stops him from using his Range Rover.
