Between aging executives and youth who still lack experience, Real Madrid is already beginning its major defense renovation project. But given the number of restricted avenues on the central defender market, we must act quickly for the Merengues. Especially after the failure of the William Saliba case, who recently extended his contract with Arsenal until 2030.
Thus, certain names come back insistently to fill the probable departures of Antonio RĂĽdiger and David Alaba. Particularly that of Dayot Upamecano. The Bayern Munich player is even considered a priority for Casa Blanca, given his young, tall, powerful and above all experienced profile.
Upamecano IN, Konaté OUT
A decision which condemns the fate of another long-standing trail, that leading to Ibrahima Konaté. According to The AthleticReal Madrid informed Liverpool that it was abandoning the idea of ​​recruiting the Frenchman in 2026. Information confirmed by Fabrizio Romano.
In question, his recent very mixed performances with the Reds. “Ibou”, who viewed Madrid’s interest favorably, nevertheless has an extension offer from his club.
