Real Madrid Were Interested in Bremer, But the Deal Fell Through Due to ACL Injury, Arnold Remains the Top Choice

Renowned journalist Fabrizio Romano mentioned in a live broadcast today that Real Madrid had shown interest in Bremer, but the deal fell through due to his ACL injury. He added that Alexander-Arnold remains the top target for the right-back position.

Romano explained that for 2025, Real Madrid's focus will be on strengthening the center-back and right-back positions. Alexander-Arnold is seen as the top target for the right-back spot, and the club is also monitoring several center-backs, including Ajax’s Hato and Leipzig’s Lukeba. These players have high potential, but there has been no formal contact with either the players or their clubs yet. Additionally, Real Madrid had previously shown interest in Juventus’ Brazilian center-back Bremer, but due to his ACL injury, they have decided to reassess other potential center-back options.
