Real Madrid have one of the top right-backs in the world right now in the form of Dani Carvajal. After
won the Champions League and the EUROs the previous season, he is a candidate for the Ballon d’Or. However, he is 32 years old, and players in their 30s are quickly caught up by Father Time. Thus, Los Blancos will undoubtedly be watching potential long-term successors for the legendary Spanish player.
For quite some time, Trent Alexander-Arnold has been connected to a move to Real Madrid. His current Liverpool contract runs out at the end of this season.
But what happens if Trent decides not to sign with Real Madrid? In that instance, it appears that they are targeting a different right-back in the Premier League.
Real Madrid is considering a €65 million bid. A player for Tottenham Hotspur
Real Madrid has a strong track record of acquiring Tottenham Hotspur players. Both Gareth Bale and Luka Modric left North London for the Spanish city, where they both excelled while wearing the Royal White shirt. He still does so in the later instance.
As stated by CaughtOffside, Real Madrid aim to move for Tottenham Hotspur’s Pedro Porro if their attempts to recruit Trent from Liverpool fail to yield the desired outcome. It is thought that a transfer fee of about €65 million will be sufficient to persuade the North London team to bypass the negotiation stage.
Naturally, Porro was connected to Real Madrid during his time at Sporting Lisbon. He has since demonstrated his abilities in the Premier League as well.
Porro is not the only Tottenham Hotspur player Real Madrid are being connected with either. They are rumored to be interested in Cristian Romero and need to bolster at center back as well.
Trent Alexander-Arnold is a player that Real Madrid would like to sign in the 2025 transfer window. If not, Real Madrid should think about these three options.
Such is the nature of the transfer market, backup options are essential. Real Madrid would prefer to always be able to recruit their first-choice players, but as the summer transfer of Leny Yoro demonstrated, this isn’t always feasible.
