Each team: Real Madrid is willing to pay huge sums of funds to sign Saliba, Arsenal is currently stepping up negotiations for renewal

May 9th According to the Daily Sports Daily, Arsenal is currently stepping up negotiations with Saliba on the renewal issue to prevent Real Madrid from poaching.

Saliba is one of the best centre-back players at the moment, and as Real Madrid plans to restructure the defense, Saliba is regarded as the first choice target for the Galaxy battleship.

Sources from within Real Madrid revealed that Real Madrid recruitment team praised Saliba as "Berlingham among the defenders." Saliba is regarded as the top presence among his generation and is believed to be able to dominate the defense for many years.

Transfer expert Romano confirmed that Real Madrid is indeed interested in introducing Saliba and is willing to pay huge amounts of funds. But he also pointed out that closing the deal this summer will be "extremely complicated" and next summer is more likely to be the right time to transfer.

Although Saliba has publicly expressed his satisfaction with staying behind Arsenal, if he fails to sign the new contract, his contract will be only one year left. Romano analyzed that if this situation continues until next summer, Real Madrid will occupy a more favorable negotiating position, but "the initiative is still in the hands of Arsenal."

French media recently reported that Real Madrid is the only club that may allow Saliba to leave the Gunners, but it is reported that Arsenal sporting director Berta has started negotiations for renewal with Saliba. The report pointed out that although Real Madrid has continued to persuade Saliba to join for several weeks, Berta has taken countermeasures last week and began to negotiate a contract renewal with Saliba.

If Real Madrid cannot lock in Saliba's signing this summer or in the future, they are believed to be transferring their target to Bournemouth central defender Wysen.

Saliba is 24 years old and a French central defender. He has played 49 games for Arsenal this season and contributed 2 goals. Currently, Germany's turnaround is worth 80 million euros.
