Real Madrid want to sign at least four players, Chelsea, Tottenham stars on the agenda
A recent report from Diario AS has offered an update on Real Madrid’s transfer policy ahead of the coming summer. The report states the club are targeting four signings in an attempt to strengthen their unit ahead of the new season.
Brahim Diaz and Fran Garcia will be two of Real Madrid’s first signings in the coming summer, with the former coming back from a loan deal at AC Milan. As for Garcia, he has shown impressive form at Rayo Vallecano and will become a part of the squad for the season ahead.
But they will not be the only signing for Real Madrid. The club’s cornerstone project in the transfer market is Jude Bellingham. The Borussia Dortmund starlet is likely to leave the club in the summer, and the report suggests Real Madrid already have the approval of the player.
However, the negotiations are going to be tricky, with Real Madrid likely to back out from the race if the player costs in excess of €100-120 million.
Another priority in the market for Los Blancos is Gabri Veiga. The Celta Vigo emerging star could be available for just €40 million in the summer, though Real Madrid are set to face stiff competition from Arsenal. Premier League giants Liverpool and Manchester City are also interested in his services.
The third player on Real Madrid’s radar is a striker. Although the club are prioritising a 2024 move for either Erling Haaland or Kylian Mbappe, they want to sign someone for the summer, knowing Karim Benzema is in the final stages of his career.
Harry Kane has emerged as a potential candidate, with many expecting the Tottenham star to leave the club in the coming summer. Dusan Vlahovic could be a potential alternative, though a lot depends on how much the Juventus star costs.
Finally, Real Madrid are looking to sign a new right-back, in order to add more competition for Dani Carvajal and Lucas Vazquez. The club are likely to keep an eye on Reece James, knowing Chelsea could be under pressure to offload the Englishman.

Real Madrid plan to hold talks with Chelsea over €60 million-rated German international
Kai Havertz has emerged as the latest target for Real Madrid as they look to beef up the attacking unit ahead of the new season.
The club are bracing themselves for the loss of Marco Asensio, who is reportedly closing in on a move to Paris Saint-Germain. Even Dani Ceballos is facing an uncertain future at Santiago Bernabeu, though the club are making a last-gasp effort to keep hold of the midfielder.
In order to mitigate the losses, Real Madrid are planning to bring in a new attacker, with Havertz emerging as a potential candidate.
According to Fabrizio Romano, Real Madrid’s plan is to hold talks with Chelsea in the next few weeks, over the possibility of Havertz’s move to the Bernabeu.
The Premier League giants seek good money for the German international, but do not consider him ‘untouchable’. The player, after all, has endured a difficult season, where his productivity has been questioned.
The former Bayer Leverkusen starlet has netted seven goals in the Premier League this past season, but the number could have easily breached the 15 mark if the forward had successfully converted most of his chances.
Chelsea, therefore, are ready to offload the German ahead of the new season. The Blues had signed the young playmaker in the summer of 2020, for an astounding €80 million. But the move has not paid off at all, with the player scoring just 32 goals in 139 appearances.
Chelsea are now keen on recouping some of that investment by asking big money for Havertz this summer. Real Madrid, for their part, are not exactly clear how much they should spend on the German, but they appear ready to take the gamble on the player.
