Real Madrid is clear that William Saliba would fit perfectly into their future defense. The French center-back from Arsenal has been monitored from Valdebebas for a while, where they consider him one of the most promising defenders in European football. However, his signing will not be an easy task. London has already made it clear that they are not willing to negotiate his departure without receiving something of great value in return. And in this case, the name on the table is Aurélien Tchouaméni.

Mikel Arteta, coach of the 'gunner' team, would be delighted to strengthen his midfield with the Real Madrid pivot. Knowing that Tchouaméni has not fully consolidated in the Real Madrid lineup, Arteta sees an opportunity to make a move that could include Saliba as part of the deal. But the response from the Spanish capital has been clear: the French midfielder is not for sale.

Real Madrid no longer sees the need for Tchouameni to leave

Tchouaméni is under contract with Real Madrid until 2028 and, despite some criticism, remains a strategic piece for Carlo Ancelotti. There are no plans to let him go, let alone use him as part of a deal for another player, no matter how high their level may be.

Nevertheless, Real Madrid keeps an eye on Saliba. If the defender does not extend his contract with Arsenal, which ends in 2027, he could become a real option for future transfer windows. The key will be his contractual situation and the player's willingness. There is confidence at Concha Espina that if the French center-back does not renew, the time will come to go for him... without sacrificing Tchouaméni along the way.
