Real Madrid remains active in the transfer market, especially after the recent defensive issues due to Dani Carvajal's injury and the lack of solidity in some key matches. In response to this situation, Florentino Pérez, president of the white club, has focused his attention on a player who will have the opportunity to shine at the Santiago Bernabéu on Tuesday: Nico Schlotterbeck, a defender for Borussia Dortmund.

Schlotterbeck, 24 years old, has established himself as one of the standout defenders in the Bundesliga and is a key player for the German team. His performance has not gone unnoticed by Juni Calafat, Real Madrid's chief scout, who has been closely following his progress in recent months. The club's sports management considers the defender to be an ideal solution to strengthen the defense for the future.

Borussia will ask for a significant amount for Schlotterbeck

The match between Real Madrid and Borussia Dortmund in the third round of the Champions League will be a tough test for Schlotterbeck, who will face a world-class attack with players like Vinícius Junior, Jude Bellingham, and Rodrygo. If the German defender manages to stand out against such a demanding opponent, his value could increase even more and bring him closer to the Madrid club.

Dortmund, aware of his value, would not make his departure easy. According to 'DefensaCentral,' the German club would demand an amount between 60 and 70 million euros, a high figure but in line with the defender's level. Schlotterbeck knows that a fantastic performance at the Bernabéu could be a turning point in his career, and Florentino Pérez will be closely watching every move of the center-back, who could become one of Real Madrid's strongest bets for the next transfer window.
