Florentino Pérez has launched an ambitious reinforcement plan for Real Madrid ahead of the upcoming summer: investing 120 million euros in two of Arsenal's most promising prospects. The Real Madrid president aims to secure the arrivals of central defender William Saliba and versatile left-back Lewis Skelly, in a double operation that would strengthen both the defense and the club's future in a single transfer window.

The primary target is Saliba, who has established himself as one of the top defenders in European football. His profile fits perfectly into the Real Madrid scheme, especially considering the uncertainties surrounding the fitness of Eder Militao and Antonio Rüdiger. The idea is for the Frenchman to come in and secure a regular spot in Carlo Ancelotti's starting lineup.

Simultaneously, the underwhelming performances of Mendy and Fran García have triggered the search for alternatives at left-back. This is where Skelly comes in, a precocious talent at just 18 years old who has already racked up significant minutes in the Premier League under Mikel Arteta's guidance. In addition to his ability to play as a full-back, his skill and vision allow him to operate in midfield, adding another dimension to his profile.

Both players are under contract with Arsenal, making the operation complex. Nevertheless, strategies are being evaluated at Valdebebas to approach the required sum, aware that such signings could shape the team's next phase. The priority is to bolster a defense that has been vulnerable at critical moments, and Florentino seems ready to place a significant bet for the immediate future.
