“They want to do everything to sign him before January. He might be playing for Real Madrid from next season. Erik ten Hag is just making these players to look bad”-Real Madrid ‘have agreed to replace their club Legend with Manchester United player who has been very consistent this season.

Real Madrid are reportedly eyeing a Manchester United star as a backup option to reinforce their right-back position if their primary target from Liverpool becomes unattainable.

The Spanish giants, widely regarded as one of Europe’s elite teams, enjoyed a stellar season last year, excelling in both La Liga and the Champions League. Over the summer, they completed the high-profile signing of Kylian Mbappé, who joined on a free transfer after his contract with Paris Saint-Germain expired. Mbappé signed a five-year contract under the leadership of Carlo Ancelotti.

Despite their impressive squad depth, Real Madrid are still looking to improve their right-back options, with their current players, Dani Carvajal and Lucas Vázquez, both in their early 30s. As a result, the club is exploring younger candidates for the position.

Liverpool’s Trent Alexander-Arnold is their primary target. Although his contract with Liverpool is set to expire in 2025, there is still a chance he might renew it. However, the opportunity to move to Real Madrid could be a tempting proposition for the English full-back.

If their pursuit of Alexander-Arnold fails, Real Madrid have identified Manchester United’s Diogo Dalot as their alternative option, according to reports from Fichajes.

Dalot, who was brought to Old Trafford in 2018 by former manager Jose Mourinho, has emerged as a key player under Erik ten Hag. The Portuguese international has made 165 appearances for United, scoring six goals across all competitions. At 25 years old, he offers a desirable mix of youth and experience, making him an attractive option for Madrid’s right-back position.

Dalot’s current contract with Manchester United runs until 2028, with the possibility of extending for an additional year. This leaves United in a strong negotiating position, as they are not under immediate pressure to sell. Nevertheless, the allure of joining Real Madrid could influence Dalot’s decision if the Spanish club comes calling.
