Real Madrid, affected by a series of injuries in defense, plans to recruit a new full-back during the winter transfer window. According to Madrid media, although the club’s official speech does not foresee any arrival, discussions are already underway. Among the priority targets, Manchester United’s Diogo Dalot is attracting keen interest. The English club have reportedly set the price for the Portuguese defender at 50 million euros.
Furthermore, the Spanish club is exploring other options, notably Trent Alexander-Arnold, whose contract with Liverpool expires in June. These reinforcements are essential to compensate for the absences of Éder Militão, David Alaba, and Dani Carvajal, all seriously injured. Despite the difficulties, the Merengues remain competitive, only one point behind Barça with a game in hand.
Hugo Larsson in the sights of Real Madrid
In addition to the defensive sector, Real Madrid wants to strengthen its midfield. According to Sky Germany, Swedish midfielder Hugo Larsson (Eintracht Frankfurt) is closely followed. Aged 20, the young talent, under contract until 2029, is estimated at 50 million euros. The Madrilenians will, however, have to face competition from Manchester United, also interested in the player.
With these two tracks at €50 million, Real Madrid intends to position itself to maintain its status despite the injuries affecting its squad.
