La Liga: Real Madrid plans surprise transfer! Arsenal pro in conversation – FOOTBALL

So far, Real Madrid’s summer transfers have talked about Kylian Mbappé (23 / Paris St. Germain) and Erling Haaland (21 / Borussia Dortmund). So about the really big guns. The latest name on the transfer carousel, on the other hand, is a real surprise.

The Sun reports that the Royals have Arsenal left-back Kieran Tierney, 24, on their wish list for next season.

The main reason: Real coach Carlo Ancelotti (62) is a big fan of the Scot. He could inherit club legend Marcelo (33), whose time in Madrid will probably come to an end in the summer.

Although the Brazilian was back in the starting XI for the last two league games, this was due to an injury to Frenchman Ferland Mendy (26). Marcelo is speculating about a return to Brazil (Fluminense).

Ancelotti wanted to bring Tierney to Naples!

According to “Calciomercato”, the ex-Bayern coach had Tierney in his sights when he was at SSC Napoli, but the player then decided to switch from Celtic Glasgow to the “Gunners”.

The problem could be the fee. The national player (26 caps) still has a contract in London until the summer of 2026! Its market value is 32 million euros. Arsenal’s transfer fee should also be of this magnitude.

Quite a lot for a potential bench press, because Mendy is unlikely to give up his regular place without a fight.
