A lack of expected arrivals on the final day of the transfer window means that Real Madrid’s business for this summer is almost definitely finished. As a result, there might already be some potential business for 2024, including some very high-profile partnerships.
The 24-year-old Kylian Mbappe has been strongly connected with Los Blancos throughout the summer, but he has chosen to stay at Paris Saint-Germain for this campaign, even if it means he will still be a free agent next summer. Real Madrid will certainly continue to pay close attention to his position.
Erling Haaland is apparently a target for Real Madrid, and the Norwegian will reportedly have a release clause worth between €180 and €200 million that takes effect next summer. Los Blancos will undoubtedly be willing to pay this amount.
According to Diario AS, Haaland’s agent, Rafaela Pimienta, has left the door open for the 22-year-old to sign with Real Madrid next summer, saying that the decision is mostly up to the Norwegian.
“Our players feel that they are in control of their own destiny.”
Haaland would have to choose between staying at Man City and moving to Madrid if Real Madrid exercised his release clause. Even with his remarkable success in England thus far, Los Blancos can be incredibly alluring.
