During the summer, Real Madrid was unable to find a solution to their center-back problem. In addition to the fact that Los Blancos already had a limited number of possibilities in that position, Nacho Fernandez left the team. However, David Alaba has not yet made a full recovery from his injury, and it is possible that he will not return for at least a few more months. In spite of this, if there is one thing that we have realized about the club over the course of the past few years, it is that they will not deviate from their intentions.
Real Madrid has been widely associated with Leny Yoro during the summer. Real Madrid is interested in acquiring him. After some time, he made the decision to sign with Manchester United. During the time when Aaron Anselmino was playing for Chelsea, there were also rumors that he was a transfer target. Arsenal has acquired Riccardo Calafiori as a player.
It is quite rare for Real Madrid to modify their strategy and sign someone else during the same transfer window when they are unsuccessful in acquiring their top transfer targets. It is important for Los Blancos to have complete confidence that they are acquiring the ideal player. This is one of the primary reasons why they have had such a successful track record in terms of recruitment over the past several years.
The name of Alessandro Bastoni, who plays center back for Inter Milan, has also been mentioned in connection with Real Madrid in recent times. However, there were rumors that stated the club was unwilling to pay the €80 million sum that the Italian club would ask for in order to part ways with him. There is a possibility that he is currently being considered by a different Premier League club.
The defender linked to Real Madrid is reportedly worth €80 million to Liverpool.
Francois Plateau tweeted that Liverpool had been keeping an eye on Castello Lukeba, who plays for RB Leipzig, Bastoni, who plays for Inter, and Jarrad Branthwaite, who plays for Everton respectively. Depending on whether Joe Gomez leaves this week or not, they might make a last-minute offer for one.
After making the move from Atalanta to Inter Milan, Bastoni has established himself as an outstanding defender for the club during the course of his career. A pair of Serie A titles, a couple of Coppa Italia titles, and a victory in the final of both the Champions League and the Europa League are among the accomplishments that he has accomplished.
What Real Madrid’s long-term plans are for the center-back issue is something that has not yet been completely determined. Despite the fact that they do not have a lot of depth in the position, they appear to be comfortable at the moment.
