Surprising News: Real Madrid Icon José Félix Díaz Urges Florentino Pérez to Act Quickly and Secure New Signing – “Don’t Let Him Join Barcelona… Sign Him Immediately!”
Real Madrid is actively assessing the transfer market with plans to strengthen their squad for the upcoming season. The main focus is on bolstering the defense, with potential targets including Trent Alexander-Arnold.
The Liverpool right-back’s contract expires on June 30, making him available for a free transfer. José Félix Díaz has shared the latest developments on the situation.
On journalist Rubén Martín’s Twitch channel, Díaz stated: “Real Madrid is still evaluating the right-back position. They’re waiting to see what happens with Alexander-Arnold. The deal is very close to being finalized, and we may see it happen in January; I wouldn’t rule that out.”
Although Alexander-Arnold’s contract ends in June, Real Madrid seems eager to secure him earlier due to ongoing defensive concerns, especially following Dani Carvajal’s injury.
This situation has created an opening that Florentino Pérez is keen to address with the English defender. However, Liverpool has been hesitant to enter discussions.
Speculation about Alexander-Arnold’s future points to two main options: extend his contract with Liverpool or join Real Madrid. Florentino Pérez firmly believes the player is an ideal addition to Madrid’s current needs.
During a recent visit to Liverpool, Pérez attempted to negotiate with the club’s owners, offering financial compensation for a player who will be free to leave in five months.
However, Liverpool is enjoying a stellar season, leading the Premier League with an eight-point advantage over Manchester City, making it difficult for them to part with one of their most crucial players.
Normally, they would seek to retain him at all costs, but Real Madrid’s president is resolute in making a move.
José Félix Díaz has made it clear in his latest update that Alexander-Arnold is a key priority for Madrid’s right side and that a deal is “nearly finalized.” We’ll have to wait and see what unfolds in the coming days.
