Real Madrid have reportedly made contact with the representatives of Arsenal defender William Saliba as they explore the possibility of signing the French international. Although no formal offer has been made, the Spanish giants are said to be monitoring the centre-back closely ahead of a potential future move.
Saliba has established himself as one of Arsenal’s most important players since returning from his loan spell at Marseille and has also become a regular for the French national team.
Softfootball understands Real Madrid have reached out to the player’s entourage to gauge their interest, even though the club is not planning an immediate transfer.
The 23-year-old has featured in 30 matches for Arsenal this season and remains under contract until 2027. His consistent performances have made him one of Europe’s most sought-after defenders as Madrid continue planning for the future.
Despite the growing speculation, Saliba is reportedly focused on helping Arsenal compete for domestic and European honours during the second half of the campaign.
