Real Madrid Interest in €130M-Rated PSG Star Confirmed as Transfer Looks Impossible

Real Madrid are looking for a midfielder, but there doesn’t seem to be a clear candidate at the moment. Rubén Cañizares, a journalist from ABC, spoke at length about this during his appearance on Rubén Martín’s Twitch channel.

First of all, he made it clear that a large part of the money will be used to strengthen the midfield.

“When it comes to the central midfield spot, that’s where the money is,” Cañizares said (h/t Bernabeu Digital). “There’s a lot of cash to sign a player there—it’s not going to come cheap. But I think what Real Madrid wants is practically impossible, which is why they’re not very sure yet. If the club could sign someone, it would be Vitinha, but they can’t.”

A recent report from Defensa Central revealed that Jorge Mendes has already made PSG’s stance clear: if Vitinha wants to leave, it’ll cost no less than €130 million. That’s a steep asking price—one Real Madrid isn’t currently willing to meet.
