Arsenal -defender William Saliba is certainly one of the best in his profession at the moment, and it is no surprise that the most glamorous contractor of football has taken note of the services he can offer. With Real Madrid who wants to renew their backline saliba, the first choice for Real Madrid is supposedly in an ideal world.
'De Jude Bellingham or Defenders' is the line that originated from the intestines of the Santiago Bernabeu, reportedly from the Real Madrid recruitment team. Saliba, 24, is seen as one of the very best in his generation, and someone who could order the backline for years.
Fabrizio Romano has revealed that he was caught offside that Los Blancos is willing to grow up for Saliba, which confirms their interest in signing him. However, he notes that a deal would be 'complicated' this summer, and next summer it would be much more likely for a departure.
Although he has noticed that he is happy with the Emirates, if Saliba does not sign a new deal, he would only have a year about his deal. Romano explains that Real Madrid would be in a much stronger position if that is the case that will come next summer, but the ball 'stays in the court of Arsenal'.
Reports in France recently cited Real Madrid, because the only club would leave Saliba Arsenal, but more positive news is the channel for Arsenal van L'Equipe, via Diario ALS. They claim that sports director Andrea Berta has opened conversations about a new deal with Saliba. They say that Real Madrid Saliba is trying to convince to join them for a few weeks, but last week Berta started the counter-movement and started conversations with the French center-back.
If Real Madrid cannot close a deal with Saliba, or the feeling that they cannot do that in the future, it seems that they will change their attention Dean Huijsen.
