Madrid Makes a Move in Arabia: Ancelotti Might Return from Supercopa with a Transfer
Florentino Pérez wants to take advantage of his stay in Arabia to speak directly with Al Nasser to transfer Laporte
Real Madrid's using the Spanish Supercopa in Saudi Arabia as a strategic opportunity in the transfer market. The Whites have reactivated their interest in Aymeric Laporte, Al Nassr's central defender, and have already started talks to finalize his transfer in January.
The tournament in Arabia offers Real Madrid the ideal occasion to negotiate face-to-face with Al Nassr and Laporte. The intention is to reach an agreement that allows the Spanish central defender to join Bernabéu at a reasonable price.
Laporte, who left Manchester City to join Saudi soccer, remains one of the most prominent defenders on the international scene. His experience and quality would perfectly fit the defensive needs of Carlo Ancelotti's team.
A necessary reinforcement
Real Madrid's defense has been under pressure this season due to injuries of key players like Militão or Carvajal. Laporte's arrival would give the team greater solidity and depth in a crucial position.
Additionally, the Spanish center-back has the advantage of being well-acquainted with high-level European competition and possesses a technical profile that suits Los Blancos' play style.
An affordable price on the horizon
Real Madrid is confident that negotiations can be successfulthanks to the player's willingness to return to European soccer. Although Laporte signed with Al Nassr a few months ago, his desire to compete at the highest level could facilitate the operation.
The Saudi club might accept an attractive offer to release the defender, given that they have other prominent names in their team.
Carlo Ancelotti, aware of the need for reinforcements, would be delighted to have Laporte on the team. His experience and leadership would be crucial for the upcoming La Liga and Champions League commitments in the second half of the season.
The winter market is just around the corner, and Real Madrid is looking to close key deals ahead of time. If negotiations succeed, Los Blancos could return from Arabia with more than just a trophy: a top-tier transfer to strengthen their defense.
