Real Madrid’s View On William Saliba After Arsenal’s UCL Loss, According To Fabrizio Romano

Arsenal star William Saliba’s future is a concern to everyone at the Emirates.

The Frenchman is one of the best defenders in world football, and he is good enough to play for every big club on the planet.

Saliba will enter the final two years of his Arsenal contract this summer, and like every top player, he has the desire to win big trophies.

Real Madrid can offer that to Saliba, but do the Galacticos think they can lure him in this summer after Arsenal were knocked out of the Champions League by Paris Saint-Germain?

Fabrizio Romano has the answer.

William Saliba has been linked with Real Madrid for a long time now.

The Spanish giants need a new centre-half this summer, and they have been considering several names. The Arsenal number two is a player they absolutely love.

Even Real Madrid fans were impressed by Saliba after watching his performance against their side over two legs in the quarter-finals.

There have been concerns among Arsenal supporters that Saliba could leave following the elimination from the Champions League on Wednesday night.

However, Romano has revealed that Real Madrid see a move for Saliba this summer as ‘unlikely’, even though they love him.

He said on the Daily Briefing: “The interest of Real Madrid remains confirmed. Real Madrid love William Saliba. Real Madrid, in the future, maybe not this summer as it looks complicated, but in any case they will maintain a close eye to the situation for the future.

“Saliba is a player they absolutely like, and they would be prepared to go big for him, but they see it as unlikely for this summer because Arsenal insist on keeping the player.

“In the future, it could be a story to watch, but only if Saliba does not sign a new deal with Arsenal.”

The latest on William Saliba’s contract situation at Arsenal
Arsenal are keen to tie Saliba down to a new contract this summer.

The Gunners are set to offer him an improved deal very soon, and reports have claimed that Andrea Berta has stepped up talks with Saliba’s camp after seeing Real Madrid’s interest.

TBR Football also revealed recently that the decision makers at Arsenal are confident that Saliba will sign a new contract and extend his stay at the club.

That is perhaps why Real Madrid think they are ‘unlikely’ to sign Saliba now and are only eyeing a move in one of the next two years if he doesn’t commit to a new deal.

Arsenal fans will be hoping that a long-term contract for their star defender will end Real Madrid’s interest – for a few years at least.
