Real Madrid keeps planning its squad for next season, although not all signings are superstars. Florentino Pérez doesn't want to miss the evolution of the young national prospects, keeping several stars under his watch. One of the names gaining the most momentum to join Madrid is Oscar Naasei, Granada's center-back who's only 20 years old.
Oscar Naasei has caught Real Madrid's attention due to his unbelievable potential, tactical maturity, and physical ability. Born in Ghana and already an international for his country, the defender has shown great growth over the past few months. Florentino doesn't want to lose track of him and has already started working to secure his signing so he can develop at La Fábrica.
Exchange underway for Oscar Naasei
Negotiations have been underway for some time and Real Madrid isn't giving up. Initially, Granada rejected the first proposal, referring to his release clause. But Florentino hopes its stance will change with a second offer.
Madrid-Barcelona has learned that Madrid has offered Granada a swap deal centered on Oscar Naasei. To sign the Ghanaian center-back, Florentino Pérez has put forward the possibility of exchanging him for Reinier.
Reinier spent this past season on loan at Granada and his contract ends on June 30, 2026. Although he's already back in the Spanish capital, Xabi Alonso hasn't taken him to the Club World Cup. He doesn't count on him and the idea is for him to leave, being available on the market. If Granada accepts, it could keep him permanently.
Reinier: A failed signing
Reinier Jesús joined Real Madrid in 2020 as a great prospect from Flamengo, with 30 million euros paid for his signing. Five years later, he's going to leave without making an impact, having clearly been a failed signing. Despite having a contract until June 30, 2026, Florentino is going to activate his departure and has no intention of keeping him at Santiago Bernabéu.
At 23 years old, he has the chance to stay at Granada if this exchange for Oscar Naasei goes through. If this doesn't happen, he's likely to return to Brazil, where he has a large market. Several clubs there want him back...
