Real Madrid are prioritizing a new centre-back this summer and monitoring Liverpool’s Ibrahima Konaté and Arsenal’s William Saliba as potential signings, depending on their contract situations.
Konaté could become available if he doesn’t renew at Liverpool, while Saliba remains a long-term target. Madrid aim to bolster their backline by seizing opportunities in the market tied to expiring or stalling contracts.
