Real Madrid continues to adjust its plans for the upcoming season, and one of the top priorities on the club's agenda is reinforcing the right-back position. With Dani Carvajal and Lucas Vázquez both over 30 years old, the Merengue entity is working on finding a successor to ensure a suitable generational shift for that role.

Initially, the favorite to fill this position was Trent Alexander-Arnold, the player from Liverpool whose contract runs until 2025, and who had piqued the interest of the Blancos. However, the situation has become complicated as the English defender is seriously considering extending his stay at Anfield, prompting Real Madrid to seek other options in the market.

A New Target: Real Madrid's Plan B

Faced with this scenario, as reported by PlanetaRealMadrid, the club has set its sights on another top-tier right-back: Diogo Dalot. The Portuguese footballer, who plays for Manchester United, has proven to be a key player under Erik ten Hag's management. His ability to fulfill defensive duties while contributing to the attack has caught the attention of the Whites, who have always valued this profile in their full-backs.

Dalot, with a contract until 2028, will not be an easy piece to negotiate for. Manchester United sees the Portuguese full-back as a cornerstone of their squad and has no intentions of facilitating his departure. Nevertheless, Real Madrid remains closely monitoring his situation, as they believe he could fit perfectly into their style of play, providing speed, offensive capabilities, and defensive solidity. Thus, Real Madrid continues to explore alternatives to strengthen their right flank, aware that the renewal in that position is inevitable in the short term.
