Irene Junquera Points to the New Modric, Real Madrid Will Pay €60M for Him

The proximity of the upcoming market has given rise to many claims or rumors of various signings. One of the most striking has been revealed by journalist Irene Junquera, who has pointed to the new Luka Modric.  With a payment of 60M euros, Real Madrid is preparing everything to secure the services of this player.

"If I have to bet on the player that Real Madrid will sign next season... that is Martín Zubimendi." Through these words, Irene Junquera has shown her confidence regarding the signing of the Real Sociedad player. Given Luka Modric's age, Real Madrid is ready to sign his replacement.

The 60M euros that the club is willing to pay are due to the release clause that Zubimendi has. Demonstrating qualities similar to Modric's, the player has been chosen by Irene to soon wear the merengue jersey.

Modric's Replacement

Playing his 13th season with Real Madrid, Modric continues to amaze the club with his quality despite his age. At 39 years old, the Croatian wizard continues to demonstrate a level typical of his best years with the club. Despite rumors pointing to a renewal for one more season, the club seeks to prepare for his departure.

While players like Rodri hovered around Real Madrid's orbit, Irene Junquera revealed the club's great target. Called to be the replacement for his compatriot from Manchester City and Modric, Zubimendi could arrive at Valdebebas in the next market.

Even with his contract until 2027, Real Sociedad is aware that this could be Zubimendi's last season with the club. Real Madrid, looking ahead to this market, is prepared with the 60M euros to finalize the transfer of Modric's replacement.

A Great Reinforcement for Real Madrid

Although the priority is defense, Real Madrid can't dismiss the opportunity to sign a player of Modric's quality.  With a few months left before the market begins, everything points to being ready for Zubimendi to step into Chamartín for the first time.
