If in sorrow, rumors of transfers. After a difficult week at Real Madrid, the press is starting to bring up names of potential players. And if they also play in La Liga and are known to the public, even better. If you add that your great rival, Atlético de Madrid, also wants him, you have the perfect story to make him a success.
Florentino Pérez is interested in transfer in La Liga
Real Madrid are still looking for a right-back, as with Dani Carvajal out, the team urgently needs reinforcements. Florentino Pérez and his board are analyzing options and one of the favorites is Liverpool's Trent Alexander-Arnold. The English defender would fit well into Real Madrid's playing system. His ability to attack and create play from deep is key.
In fact, Arnold has become one of the most outstanding full-backs in Europe. However, bringing him to Madrid will not be easy or cheap. Even if his contract expires, the transfer fee will be high and other clubs will surely try to convince him.
Real Madrid are studying other alternatives in case the transfer of Arnold fails and this is where Jon Aramburu comes in. This young 22-year-old defender currently plays for Real Sociedad and has shone in the Spanish league this season. His speed and defensive strength are notable and he projects well in attack and provides stability in the back. Without a doubt, for Real Madrid, he would be a future transfer with great potential.
Florentino Pérez takes it from Simeone
But it is not only Real Madrid who are interested in Aramburu: Atlético de Madrid have also been following him for months. Diego Simeone considers him a great option to strengthen his defense, so this shared interest complicates the situation. When Real Madrid and Atlético are interested in the same player, the price goes up. The two Madrid clubs could enter into a “war” for the young talent.
Meanwhile, Real Sociedad are prepared to hold out, as the club has no intention of letting Aramburu go easily. His performances have attracted attention, even outside Spain. In Italy, Inter Milan are also watching him closely. San Sebastian want to keep him, but know it will be difficult with so many interested parties.
Florentino Pérez and Enrique Cerezo must make a decision soon. The winter transfer market is approaching, and the right-back position is urgent for both of them. Although Alexander-Arnold remains the first option for Real Madrid, Aramburu is gaining strength as an alternative. The competition is open, and the two Madrid giants are ready to fight.
