Arnold was interviewed by Real Madrid TV for the first time as a Real Madrid player, and he expressed his excitement.

About joining Real Madrid

- I'm very happy to be here, this is a dream come true. It was a very exciting time for me and I was very excited to start a new life. It is an incredible achievement to be here, but there is still a lot of work to be done. Becoming a Real Madrid player is the dream of most football players in the world at a certain stage of their life, and this has become a reality and I am still trying to digest it. Now, it feels very special to come to this country and to this city. It feels great to feel this welcome in my new home and I am very looking forward to starting a new life.

What made you decide to join Real Madrid?

- Anyone who knows football knows that Real Madrid is a team that pursues success and trophy. As a player, my mentality meets this requirement. I am eager to win trophys, to fight alongside the best players in the world and pursue excellence. Now is the perfect time to leave Liverpool and experience something different, and there is no better place than here.

About Florentino

- Thanks to the president, the team flourished, won numerous championships, dominated the European arena, and achieved success in La Liga. Real Madrid is a team known for success and championship wins, and I think the chairman is the key to it. I must thank him for bringing me here and giving me this opportunity to continue working hard on the basis of glory and add icing on the cake to the club's existing glorious history.

About the initial memory of Real Madrid

- My initial memory may be watching Beckham play football, then Ronaldo, Bale... These players came to Real Madrid from the Premier League and were still successful in this club. I admire them very much. I think I realized Real Madrid's success since I was a child, and this is unavoidable. You can feel it, season after season, clubs are winning trophies. That's what people have come to be a member of such a team—the expectations. I look forward to feeling the pressure of dying for success and fighting for it every week.

About Xavi Alonso

-I talked to him and I was very excited. He is one of my idols and I see him playing for Liverpool and he has had success with both the club and the national team. As a coach, he is equally outstanding. He has proven himself able to win the championship and pass on his football philosophy to the team. It was a very exciting time for the club.

About Bernabeu Stadium

—As a visiting player, it feels very different here. This is scary, and there are a lot of noise around it. Hopefully I will be able to play here as a Real Madrid player soon, which will certainly be an incredible experience. This is something I think about a lot lately and I am very excited about it. I like this feeling and show my abilities to be able to play in front of fans who support football and love football. I am full of expectations.

About conversations with Bellingham

—As a friend, we talked about his experience here, and when you transfer, you will want to know what the team is like. He told me that he loved it, and it was also reflected in his game, and he enjoyed football. It all tells me that this is the ideal place for my career to develop.

About Club World Cup

—No better way to start: go to the United States to play Club World Cup and be a member of such a great team.

Words to be passed on to Real Madrid fans

- Thank you for your support and warm welcome in Spain. I am very much looking forward to becoming a Real Madrid player and embarking on a new journey. ¡ Hala Madrid!
