Real Madrid Transfer News Roundup: January 9, 2025: The club loses Alphonso Davies, Los Blancos target a Serie A star, and more

Real Madrid’s transfer focus continues in January 2024, with several notable developments:

  1. Ederson Targeted for Midfield Reinforcement: Real Madrid have set their sights on Atalanta’s Ederson as a potential midfield addition. Although their primary target is Martin Zubimendi from Real Sociedad, the intense competition for his signature has prompted Los Blancos to consider Ederson as an alternative. The Brazilian has been a key figure in Atalanta’s Europa League triumph last season and has contributed 2 goals and 1 assist in 25 appearances this campaign. Atalanta are unlikely to let him leave mid-season, but could consider a €60m sale in the summer. Other clubs, including Manchester United, Manchester City, and Atletico Madrid, are also interested.
  2. Setback in Alphonso Davies Pursuit: Real Madrid’s hopes of signing Alphonso Davies from Bayern Munich have taken a blow as the Canadian star is reportedly close to agreeing to a contract renewal with the German giants. Despite interest from Los Blancos, Bayern Munich is determined to keep Davies and is expected to finalize a new deal soon, potentially dashing Madrid’s plans to acquire him on a free transfer in the summer.
  3. Juanlu Sanchez Interest Amid Right-Back Pursuit: Real Madrid are also targeting a new right-back, with Liverpool’s Trent Alexander-Arnold being a key option. However, if Alexander-Arnold extends his contract with Liverpool, Los Blancos are considering Sevilla’s Juanlu Sanchez as a backup. The Spanish right-back, valued at €10m, could be available for a loan move this month, with an option to buy at the end of the season. However, RB Leipzig are reportedly also interested in securing Sanchez on loan.

As Real Madrid prepares for their Supercopa de Espana semifinal against Mallorca, their transfer plans for the coming months are shaping up with these key targets in mind.
