Real Madrid could go forward on the transfer market this summer, seeking to mark a new era at the Santiago Bernabéu.

However, he could find it difficult to recruit one of his long -term objectives, which seems closer and closer to a transfer to a European rival.

The departure of Carlo Ancelotti from Real Madrid is expected at the end of the season, replaced by Xabi Alonso. If that happened, the Merengues would inevitably become one of the favorites for Florian Wirtz, who should leave Bayer Leverkusen during the summer transfer window.

Wirtz always very coveted

Alonso and Wirtz have collaborated very well in the past two and a half seasons, but it is far from certain that they maintain their coach-player relationship to Real Madrid, the latter being able to go elsewhere.

Wirtz to Bayern

Wirtz would be very interested in a transfer to Real Madrid, but it would also be open to a transfer to Bayern Munich. And as Santi Aouna reported, he concluded a personal agreement with the future Bundesliga champion.

The prospect of seeing Wirtz play alongside players like Harry Kane, Jamal Musiala and Michael Olise delights Bayern supporters, and an agreement is now close. However, Real Madrid still has a chance to get started, because no agreement has yet been found between the two Bundesliga clubs.

Manchester City is also interested in Wirtz, but for the moment, the only club with which the German international has concluded an agreement is Bayern. Real Madrid could consider doing so in the coming weeks, even if an agreement with Leverkusen may not be possible, except in the event of significant sales this summer. What could happen, since Rodrygo Goes could be transferred to raise funds.
