With the start of the 2024\/2025 football season, major clubs have begun to consider their options for next summer signings.<\/p>\n
Real Madrid, the prestigious club that is only satisfied with success, is seriously looking to strengthen its ranks after recent failures in the transfer market.
\nAccording to information from the Spanish newspaper Defensa Central, among the names that interest the royal club, the young Bayer Leverkusen player, Florian Wirtz, tops Florentino Perez’s wish list.<\/p>\n
Wirtz has a remarkable talent and the ability to greatly influence the midfield, and is supervised by Xabi Alonso, which increases his chances of joining the Santiago Bernab\u00e9u.
\nIn addition to Wirtz, Real Madrid are seriously looking at Rodrigo Hernandez, the Manchester City player, as Hernandez is expected to contribute significantly to strengthening the team’s midfield, especially after the departure of Toni Kroos and the doubts surrounding the midfield this season, which were reinforced by the news about Aurelien Tchouameni.<\/p>\n
However, the problem remains that signing both players would require huge investments exceeding \u20ac100 million, which is a major challenge given the club\u2019s recent financial policies.
\nIn light of this, it seems that Real Madrid may also be interested in signing a versatile player at a lower cost and according to recent reports, Florentino Perez is closely monitoring Liverpool\u2019s Trent Alexander-Arnold, whose contract expires in 2025.<\/p>\n
In addition to his skills as a full-back, Arnold has the ability to play in the midfield position, making him an attractive solution to strengthen two positions at once.
\nHis good relationship with Jude Bellingham, his national team teammate, could also be an added advantage that would boost his chances of moving to Real Madrid.<\/p>\n
In short, while Wirtz and Hernandez remain strong options, the cost of signing them could be a barrier and in this case, Arnold could be the ideal option to strengthen Real Madrid\u2019s squad in terms of cost-effectiveness and multiple functions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
