Real Madrid will almost certainly try to tackle their defense in the summer, given the big problems they have had this season. Full-back has been a certain point of care for the defensive La Liga and European champions, so it would be no surprise to see new signing sessions in both positions.
With regard to right back, Trent Alexander-Arnold is the clear favorite, and if a pre-contract agreement can be reached in the coming months, it would be a sensational bag from Real Madrid. However, Liverpool has not given up the hope of keeping one of them valued players, which means that an alternative may be needed.
One of the players who has been identified as a plan B by Real Madrid is Juanlu Sanchez. The 21-year-old has been a consistent performer for Sevilla this season, although he hardly played on right back because of the good versions of Jose Angel Carmona. However, it is expected that he will play in that position on Sunday when Barcelona goes to the Ramon Sanchez-Pizjuan.
Juanlu has long been a target for Real Madrid, although they might miss the chance to take a step for him. In recent weeks, Galatasaray has insisted to conclude an agreement with Seville, and with the Turkish transfer window that will be closed in a few days, they have taken their last step.
According to Ed, Sevilla has received an offer in the region of € 11 million from Galatasaray, for which they still have to answer. However, it is assumed that their asking price is closer to € 15 million, which would suggest that the proposal will be rejected.
Juanlu is rated very high at Seville, and they hope to hold him to him for a while. Real Madrid could, however, threaten that, although it is unlikely that a deal will be investigated unless Alexander-Arnold remains in Liverpool.
