23-Year-Old Player Considering Dramatic Arsenal Exit – Real Madrid Ready to Make Him Their Most Expensive Signing For €125m Next Summer
Real Madrid Scout Watches Arsenal and Tottenham Defenders in North London Derby
Two days ago, Arsenal secured a 1-0 victory over Tottenham Hotspur in the highly anticipated North London Derby, thanks to Gabriel Magalhães’s decisive header. The result leaves Tottenham struggling, as they now sit 13th in the table after their previous 2-1 loss to Newcastle. Arsenal, on the other hand, continue their impressive start to the season, remaining undefeated despite missing key players like Martin Ødegaard and Declan Rice, who was suspended after a red card in their previous match.
One of the main storylines surrounding the game involved Real Madrid’s interest in defensive talent. According to reports from Defensa Central, Real Madrid’s chief scout Juni Calafat attended the match, focusing on Tottenham’s Cristian Romero and Arsenal’s William Saliba.
With Real Madrid looking to strengthen their backline in the January transfer window, both Romero and Saliba have been identified as potential targets. The Spanish giants believe the two Premier League defenders possess the skill and temperament necessary to succeed at the Bernabéu. While there is no formal bid yet, Real’s interest seems serious, having monitored both players over the summer as well.
It remains to be seen if Arsenal or Tottenham will entertain any offers from Madrid in the coming months, especially after a hard-fought derby that showcased the talents of both defenders.
