Last season, Real Madrid faced defensive problems time and time again, but they are already being worked on. Moreover, reinforcements may even come from the Saudi Arabian championship.
As reported by As, Real Madrid head coach Carlo Ancelotti has agreed to sign Al Nassr defender Aymeric Laporte. But the Madrid club have set a condition for the transfer to happen.
That condition is that the Spaniard decides his future with the Saudi club. But it is not easy to do so. The contract linking the two sides does not expire until 2026 and guarantees an annual salary of 24 million euros.
The player's agent is negotiating to terminate the contract and waive the 48 million due over two years. At the moment, the Saudis do not want to bring the matter to a rupture.
Recall that Real are now linked with another transfer saga involving the defender, namely the signing of Bayern player Alphonso Davies.
