"No contacts." Spain defender addressed rumors of Real Madrid's interest
Spanish national team and Al-Nassr defender Aymeric Laporte attended a press conference ahead of Spain's UEFA Nations League match against Switzerland. Among other topics, the player addressed rumors of interest from Real Madrid and shared his future plans.
Details: Laporte denied any interest from Real Madrid but mentioned that he doesn’t rule out a return to Europe in the future. Since 2023, Aymeric has been playing for Al-Nassr after transferring from Manchester City.
Quote: "There was nothing, no contact. In Saudi Arabia, I'm far from my family and familiar surroundings. Maybe, in the future, it will be valuable to return to Europe, and then that decision will need to be carefully considered."
Recall: In the first round of the Nations League, Spain couldn’t defeat Serbia, with the match ending 0-0. Laporte played all 90 minutes. Besides Serbia and Switzerland, Spain's other group opponent is Denmark.
