English Midfielder Prodigy Is Likely To Go Unsigned By Real Madrid.

Real Madrid will need to start planning for life without its legendary midfield tandem as Luka Modric and Toni Kroos approach the end of their professional careers.

However, it seems that the team is well-prepared given that they already have Aurelien Tchouameni, Eduardo Camavinga, and Federico Valverde. Florentino Perez, the president, wants to add one more great player to the post, however.

Declan Rice of West Ham United, who has distinguished himself as one of the top defensive midfielders in the Premier League, was one of the names that had been mentioned. The 24-year-old has accumulated 39 caps for the Three Lions and is a regular for England.

El Nacional reports that Rice has decided to join Premier League champions Arsenal rather than Real Madrid, who were examining Rice as a potential summer acquisition for their big midfielder.

Jude Bellingham, who is the club’s top target for the summer transfer window, was one option that Real Madrid had in place of Rice. The player from Borussia Dortmund is most likely going to depart at the conclusion of the current campaign, and Los Blancos wants to bring him to Madrid.

They will have tough competition, however, as Liverpool and Manchester City are two of the teams interested in signing the 19-year-old.
