The transfer market always sparks debates around Real Madrid. This time, Ramón Álvarez de Mon, a journalist specializing in the current affairs of the club, hinted at possible moves during a chat on Rubén Martín's Twitch channel. What revelations did he make about the upcoming transfers? Here we analyze his words.
Florian Wirtz: A Talent Not in the Plans
One of the names that came up was Florian Wirtz, the promising attacking midfielder from Bayer Leverkusen. However, Álvarez de Mon made it clear that Real Madrid isn't working on his transfer at the moment.
According to the journalist, although the German player is being closely followed, he isn't a priority for several reasons. "Because of the price, the position he plays on the field, and other things, he's not a target right now," he stated.
This cooled the expectations of many fans who see Wirtz as a potential fit for the club's midfield. However, Bayer Leverkusen's CEO has denied that his renewal is closed, leaving negotiations about his future open.
Martín Zubimendi: A Realistic Option
The other name that came up in the conversation was Martín Zubimendi, a midfielder from Real Sociedad. According to Álvarez de Mon, this transfer would be more feasible, as he fits the profile Real Madrid is looking for to strengthen their midfield. Zubimendi is an organizer with great vision, qualities that make him an interesting option.
Additionally, his release clause of 60 million euros, although high, isn't unattainable for the club's finances. Álvarez de Mon stated: "Zubimendi fits because Madrid is looking for an organizing midfielder. Let's see what happens."
Better Than Pedri?
The debate about future talents always leads to comparisons. Although Wirtz and Zubimendi have different characteristics, some fans are already speculating that either of them could surpass Pedri, the young star from Barcelona. (*) Florentino Pérez prioritizes building a solid and lasting project over directly competing with Barça.
Real Madrid's transfer market promises to be exciting. While Wirtz seems to be out of the immediate plans, Zubimendi positions himself as a concrete possibility to strengthen the midfield.
The only sure thing is that Florentino Pérez and his team are working to secure a quality transfer that will shape the club's future. Will Zubimendi be the chosen one? Time will tell.
