The alarm bells seem to have been sounded at Real Madrid. Crushed for the second time this season by FC Barcelona, this time in the final of the Spanish Super Cup, the Merengues want to take advantage of the winter transfer window to strengthen their squad, particularly in defense. If it is the right-back position which seems to be the priority of the White House, recruiting a player capable of playing alongside Antonio Rüdiger in the central hinge would also be the wish of the Madrilenians according to Marca.
Announced in Madrid last summer, Aymeric Laporte could once again be the subject of interest from Florentino Pérez's club according to the Spanish source. But being under contract until June 2026 with Al-Nassr, the central defender would cost transfer compensation to the residents of the Bernabéu. An operation which would then go against the policy of the European Champions, who wish to recruit players over 30 only when they are free. Still believing Marcathere is therefore very little chance that Real Madrid will recruit for this position during this winter transfer window.
