Real Madrid is interested in signing Arsenal defender William Saliba at the end of the season, and players are aware of his interest in him.
According to a report from the Spanish publication Marca, Real Madrid has been tracking players for a while and hopes he will lead the defensive forces next season. It will be interesting to see if they can agree to a deal with Arsenal.
The 24-year-old is one of the best players at the club and Arsenal wouldn’t want to lose him easily. They will want to fight for the trophy next season, and they cannot afford to sell their best players.
Real Madrid, on the other hand, looked defensively vulnerable, and it’s no surprise that they want to sign one of the most talented young defenders in world football. Saliba is certainly one of the best defenders in the Premier League and he has all the attributes to develop into a world-class star. He could become a key player for Real Madrid in the near future.
Can Real Madrid seduce William Saliba?
It would be interesting to see if players are willing to join a Spanish club in the summer. The opportunity to turn on Real Madrid is difficult for any player. They can also provide him with a platform to push major trophies each year.
Young defenders could improve further with coaching and experience. Real Madrid’s regular football can help him accelerate his development. Even if the Spanish outfit now has to pay him premiums, the investment could be justified in the long term.
It will be interesting to see if Real Madrid decided to follow up on their interest with an official offer signing to the players. They may need to pay an absurd amount to persuade Arsenal.
