Real Madrid are most keen on Arsenal’s William Saliba. Despite this, Saliba joining this summer is highly unlikely. He has a contract with Arsenal until 2027 and the club want him to renew, so either Madrid would be turned down or any potential fee to sign him would be too high.
That is why they are deploying their usual transfer strategy: staying close to the player discreetly and preparing the ground to try and sign him in 2026 for an affordable amount or in 2027 as a free agent. @MarioCortegana
