Real Madrid youth prodigy tempted by Dortmund offer; to decide future soon
The future of Diego Aguado has been a talking point at Real Madrid lately, especially amid interest from other European clubs.
A centre-back by trade, Aguado is regarded as one of La Fabrica‘s finest talents, who made his competitive debut for Real Madrid this past season.
Even though Aguado had signed a long-term contract extension at Real Madrid in April, his future at the club remains uncertain.
It was reported recently that Aguado has received a €6 million offer from Borussia Dortmund, who are willing to hand him a first-team contract.
Aguado tempted by Dortmund offer
According to Diario AS, Diego Aguado’s future at Real Madrid remains open, especially in the midst of Dortmund’s offer.
Although the youngster’s priority is to remain at Real Madrid, he is tempted by the ‘juicy’ offer from Dortmund.
A move to the Bundesliga, after all, may give him the opportunity to make his breakthrough in the first-team.
Aguado, therefore, is willing to wait and see what Real Madrid have to offer him next season before committing his future at the club.
Recent reports do suggest the young defender will become a part of Real Madrid’s FIFA Club World Cup campaign, which is a step in the right direction.
However, it is important for Xabi Alonso to give him proper game-time if the club are to keep hold of Aguado and not lose him to Dortmund this summer.
The coming few weeks, to that end, could prove to be critical for young Aguado as he looks to choose between joining Dortmund and staying at Real Madrid.
Kylian Mbappe has been named Real Madrid Player of the Month for August after an impressive start to the 2026/27 season.
The French forward was recognised for his performances during the month, featuring in all three of Real Madrid’s matches and scoring four goals.
Mbappe opened his goalscoring account for the season in Real Madrid’s second game of the season against Real Sociedad, plundering a hat-trick in a 4-1 win.
The France captain was on target again in the next game, scoring in a 4-0 win over newly-promoted La Liga side, Malaga.

Mbappe happy with positive start
After receiving the award at the training facilities earlier today, Mbappe spoke to RMTV, talking positively about the team’s start to the campaign and outlined his ambitions for the months ahead.
“We’ve started the season positively. I hope we can continue like this on Saturday. I think there can be a lot of success this season,” he said.
The Real Madrid forward is determined to play his part as the team pursue trophies on multiple fronts.
“I’m really looking forward to helping the team and showing that we can do great things this year. I’m always happy to play here. I know it’s a privilege,” he noted.
Welcoming the new arrivals
Mbappe also discussed the new faces who have joined the squad, stressing the importance of ensuring everyone settles quickly into the team.
After all, Real Madrid have made as many as six new additions in Ibrahima Konate, Marc Cucurella, Bernardo Silva, Carlos Espi, Denzel Dumfries, and Yan Diomande.
“It’s always good to see new faces. They come wanting to help the badge and Real Madrid. We’ve tried to make sure everyone adapts in the best possible way so that we can all move in the same direction,” he stated.
With the squad continuing to improve, Mbappe believes unity will be crucial as Real Madrid aim for a successful season.
The France captain’s four goals in August, coupled with his strike against Inter Milan earlier this week, have provided an early indication of his importance to the side as Real Madrid look to bring trophies back at the Bernabeu.
