Real Madrid launch move for De Ligt

Previews: Portugal v Netherlands - UEFA Nations League Final

Real Madrid seem to be on a roll in this transfer market. They have already signed Luka Jovic and Eden Hazard for the attack while young Rodrygo is also on his way to the Santiago Bernabeu.

They have also made defensive reinforcement in the form of Eder Militao but that might not be where they are going to stop. According to reports from Spain, Real Madrid want to sign Matthijs De Ligt from Ajax.

The Dutchman has been heavily linked with a move to the Camp Nou. However, the deal seems to be off right now as De Ligt is not convinced by their sporting project while Barca are also not willing to pay €20 million in agent fees to Mino Raiola.

However, Real Madrid are willing to entertain Raiola’s request as he wants to take advantage of the situation.
