Florentino Keeps an Eye on Him against Girona: Dani Carvajal Agrees with his Signing

The match against Girona takes on special importance to strengthen Real Madrid's squad.

Real Madrid Focuses on LaLiga after the path in the Champions League has been defined. The draw has been tough in Europe, but it's time to focus all attention on Spain, where an important match against Girona awaits. Bernabéu faces a challenging encounter, in which Florentino will take the opportunity to closely monitor Arnau Martínez.

In the midst of the search to strengthen Real Madrid's full-backs, a low-cost option has emerged that seems to be gaining supporters at Bernabéu. Arnau Martínez is having a great season at Girona and it seems that, once and for all, he is unleashing all the potential he possessed. He is a more defensive profile, but one that Florentino likes and is convinced of for the future.

Arnau Martínez is 21 years old, will turn 22 next April, and has a contract with Girona until 2029. Trained in Barça's youth academy, it seems that next season he intends to make the leap to a bigger team and would like the option of Real Madrid. He has experience in LaLiga and Europe, being a possibility that is gaining supporters at Bernabéu for the summer.

Arnau Martínez has been scouted by Real Madrid for several years. He is very much liked on the right flank and the possibility of him developing as a center-back is also convincing. At the moment, he is not a priority, but he is being closely monitored and has a clause that makes him a real bargain.

In his contract with Girona, the Catalan has a release clause valued at only 14 million euros. This has sparked the interest of several clubs in Europe. This means that if Florentino decides on him, he will have to act quickly so that no one else takes him.

A few years ago, Arnau Martínez was in Atlético's sights, although the deal was not finalized. Now, some time later, his future may point to Bernabéu, where Florentino is following him very closely.

Arnau Martínez is liked, convincing, but not a priority at Real Madrid. Everything seems to indicate that between Arnold, Dani Carvajal, and Lucas, the position will be more than covered. However, Florentino doesn't rule out any possibility and remains alert to the development of events with the defender born in Premià de Dalt.
