The Transfer Álvaro Benito is Asking for in Real Madrid's Midfield

Real Madrid has a considerable number of potential transfers to make for the upcoming season. While many might lean more toward addressing the defensive issues, others might see reinforcing the midfield as more viable. Such is the case with a white team  former player like Álvaro Benito, who is very clear about the name to strengthen the club.

Against all odds, it wouldn't be names like superstars of the level of Zubimendi or Wirtz, but rather Tijjani Reijnders from AC Milan. This came out after a series of questions through the newspaper As, where he explained it perfectly. "He can play in different positions, but mainly he's an eight; he's a very good, very dynamic player with quality."

He comments that he has watched a series of games of the Dutch soccer player and that his performance convinced him. Additionally, the exhibition he had during the game against Madrid in the Champions League was also part of it.

Wants to bring him from Milan

This player arrived at the Italian team just one season ago from his country, where he seems to have made an exponential leap in quality. His transfer, which cost Milan only 20 million euros, has now more than doubled in value, reaching 50.

His numbers with the Italian team demonstrate why he's one of the best playmakers in all of Italian football. With over 2300 minutes in 28 matches and 11 goal contributions, they demonstrate this.

As Álvaro Benito comments, his main role is being a midfielder more positioned in the interior of the midfield.  However, he also has an outstanding performance as a pivot and even as an attacking midfielder, according to the records this season.

A very interesting signing

This could be one of the most interesting options Florentino Pérez has on the list, which he surely has already studied very well. At 26 years old, he has a very promising future ahead and a growth capacity that could greatly help Madrid.
