Florentino's 'Impossible' Transfer Costs 100 Millions and Its Arrival is Complicated

The transfer market is still in motion, and with this, Real Madrid continues to analyze its options and interests. Considering the current state of its defense, affected by injuries, the club is clear about transfer a central defender. This has led Florentino Pérez to focus on a transfer that's extremely difficult to execute due to the player's high value.

William Saliba is the central defender who has remained in the president's sights for a future transfer. Despite Real Madrid's clear interest, the 100 million euro value has presented a significant problem. Additionally, the importance of the Frenchman in the British team's schemes makes his departure more complicated.

Even so, Florentino is clear about making a move for Saliba next summer market. Aware of the need for a central defender, the Frenchman has shown he has what it takes to wear the Meringue jersey.

Florentino Pérez's desire

Consolidating under Mikel Arteta's orders, Saliba is one of the best central defenders in the Premier League. The 2,625 minutes he's played this season show the importance the 23-year-old has in the club. In his sixth season as an Arsenal player, Saliba is one of Florentino Pérez's great desires.

However, his contract until 2027 and his 100 million euro value complicate his potential transfer by Real Madrid too much. Despite being able to fit into the merengue team's schemes, nothing points to a departure by the Frenchman in a future market.

While the merengue team will look for a way to convince him, Arsenal won't sit idly by with this situation. Being one of the leaders of the London team, both the team and Arteta are not interested in Saliba's farewell.

The problems of this operation

Despite all these setbacks, Real Madrid is not a team known for giving up so easily. Relying on its experience with past transfers, the club will try to find a way to have the ideal center-back to strengthen its defense.
