Real Madrid Identify €30 million-Rated Dutch Star As Replacement For Struggling Midfielder

Real Madrid have reportedly set their sights on a potential replacement for Aurelien Tchouameni, and the player in question is none other than AC Milan’s Tijjani Reijnders.

According to Fichajes, Reijnders’ recent performance against Real Madrid in the Champions League left quite an impression, leading the club to consider him as an ideal addition to their midfield lineup.

The 26-year-old Dutch midfielder has been a standout figure at Milan this season, thanks to his impressive ability to link up play and his contributions in attack.

Interestingly, his well-rounded skill set has attracted the attention of multiple top clubs across Europe, including Tottenham, Barcelona, and Manchester City.

Real Madrid see him as a strong option to step into Tchouameni’s role if the French international is sold in the near future.

Reijnders has impressed everyone

Reijnders’ performances have not gone unnoticed by AC Milan either, as the club is reportedly keen to secure his long-term future.

To fend off interest from clubs like Real Madrid, Milan are preparing a renewal offer that could see Reijnders’ salary rise to €3 million per year, with an extension to his contract until 2030.

Meanwhile, Real Madrid’s interest in Reijnders aligns with their strategy to strengthen their midfield. The club aims to maintain a mix of youthful energy and experienced players in this crucial area of the pitch, and Reijnders’ versatility and vision could fit well into this model.

However, Milan have set a hefty price tag of around €60 million for their prized midfielder, a fee that reflects his growing reputation in the football world.

As the transfer window approaches, it will be interesting to see if Real Madrid or other interested clubs are willing to meet Milan’s valuation and compete for Reijnders’ signature.

The coming months could determine whether the Dutch midfielder makes a move to Spain or commits to a long-term future with AC Milan.
