A major development in England has reopened an old possibility for Real Madrid.. but the player’s situation could make the deal far more complicated than expected.
Real Madrid have once again turned their attention toward a midfielder in the Premier League, with a familiar name returning to the club’s radar after a major development at Arsenal.

The Spanish giants had previously shown interest in the player before he made the move to England, but circumstances have now changed and could potentially give Real Madrid another opportunity to make a move.
The midfielder joined Arsenal for around €70 million and signed a long-term contract with the London club. He initially played an important role, but his situation has reportedly changed over time, particularly after a minor knee problem affected his rhythm.
A New Development Changes Everything
Real Madrid had previously considered strengthening their midfield, but the club eventually decided against making another major move in that area.
However, recent developments at Arsenal have changed the situation once again.
The arrival of another high-profile midfielder has raised questions about the future of the player, with Real Madrid now monitoring the situation closely.
The possibility of a move to Madrid has therefore returned to the discussion.
A transfer that once appeared to be off the table has suddenly returned to the spotlight.. and Real Madrid are watching closely.
The Price Could Be the Biggest Obstacle
Despite the renewed interest, completing the deal will not be straightforward.
Arsenal are expected to demand a significant fee for the midfielder, with reports suggesting that the asking price could reach around €90 million.
That figure could force Real Madrid to carefully consider whether the deal represents the right investment, especially with other options available on the market.
Chelsea are also monitoring the situation, meaning the Merengues could face serious competition if they decide to make an official approach.
The Player’s Desire Could Change the Story
One factor could nevertheless work strongly in Real Madrid’s favor.
The player has previously shown a desire to wear the famous white shirt, and that ambition could become an important element if negotiations begin.
Real Madrid could therefore have an advantage if the midfielder makes it clear that his preferred destination is the Santiago Bernabéu.
However, Arsenal’s position and the financial demands surrounding the transfer remain major obstacles.
What Happens Next?
For now, Real Madrid are monitoring the situation rather than committing to a full-scale transfer operation.
The club knows the player well and has already considered him in the past, while the latest developments in the Premier League have simply brought the possibility back into focus.
If the situation at Arsenal continues to change, Real Madrid could decide to step forward.
The big question is whether the Spanish giants are prepared to meet the asking price — and whether the player’s desire to move to Madrid can help push the deal forward.
