Real Madrid is preparing for the future. The 2024-2025 financial year has barely started and Madrid leaders are already looking towards the next summer transfer window. The latter would even have already been targeted as their main priority.
According to information from 10 Sportsthe Merengue are keen on William Saliba. They have already contacted the entourage of the Arsenal defender and the French team to express their interest.
A transfer worth more than €80 million?
Yes, but the operation promises to be complicated for the White House. Indeed, William Saliba is today considered one of the very best defenders on the planet and the Gunners are counting on him. The former Stéphanois also extended his contract a little over a year ago until June 2027, with a clear salary increase at stake.
From then on, Real Madrid will certainly have to take out the checkbook to try to convince Arsenal to let go of their French international. The value of the latter is currently estimated at 80 million euros by the specialized site Transfermarkt. But there is no doubt that the decision-makers of the London club will demand more if Real Madrid has already targeted its main priority for the 2025 summer transfer window. It would be a French player. Madrid decided to go on the offensive.
