Real Madrid has been linked with a move for Manchester United's Alejandro Garnacho, given the young Argentine's expressed admiration for the club and its former star, Cristiano Ronaldo. However, the Spanish giants are also reportedly keen on Garnacho's teammate, Diogo Dalot, as they look to strengthen their defense.
According to Spanish outlet Relevo, Real Madrid has already contacted Manchester United to inquire about Dalot's availability and the potential transfer fee. The Red Devils are said to be demanding €50 million for the Portuguese full-back.
Garnacho: The Heart Wants What It Wants
Garnacho's public admiration for Real Madrid has made him a popular figure among the club's fanbase. The young winger has spoken openly about his childhood dream of playing for Los Blancos and has even been spotted wearing a Real Madrid shirt on several occasions. His pace, skill, and eye for goal have made him one of the most exciting young talents in European football.
However, while Garnacho may be the fans' favorite, Real Madrid's interest in him is not as straightforward. The club already has a number of talented young attackers, and signing Garnacho would require a significant investment. Additionally, there are concerns about his consistency and whether he can handle the pressure of playing for such a big club.
Dalot: A More Practical Option
Diogo Dalot, on the other hand, represents a more practical option for Real Madrid. The Portuguese full-back has been impressive for Manchester United this season and is considered one of the best right-backs in the Premier League. His versatility, defensive solidity, and attacking prowess make him an attractive target for Carlo Ancelotti.
A move to Real Madrid would be a significant step up for Dalot, but he is believed to be open to the idea of joining one of the biggest clubs in the world. The €50 million asking price is certainly not cheap, but it is considered to be a fair valuation for a player of Dalot's quality and potential.
Which player will Real Madrid sign?
It remains to be seen whether Real Madrid will pursue a move for Garnacho, Dalot, or both. The club's transfer policy in recent years has been to focus on young, talented players with high potential. Both Garnacho and Dalot fit this profile, but the club will need to weigh up the pros and cons of each player before making a decision.
