- The summer transfer window is promising to be an exciting one with clubs readying themselves
- Real Madrid are on the lookout for a new right-back with Dani Carvajal ageing out of the team
- The La Liga giants are interested in swooping in for Chelsea and England wing-back Reece James in the summer
Chelsea have underperformed this season and may seek to offload players to meet financial fair play requirements, but will Reece James leave Stamford Bridge?
Since Todd Boehly took over control from Roman Abramovich ten months ago, the Blues have spent a lot of money.
Signings included Enzo Fernandez, Wesley Fofana, Mykhailo Mudryk, Marc Cucurella, Raheem Sterling, Benoit Badiashile, Kalidou Koulibaly, Noni Madueke, and Malo Gusto.
According to AS, Real Madrid are planning a surprise move for Chelsea full-back Reece James as the Blues prepare a clear-out.
James, 23, is under contract with the Blues until 2028, complicating any deal, but Los Blancos are apparently hoping that Chelsea’s need to balance the books will work in their favour.
Madrid previously signed Thibaut Courtois and Eden Hazard from Chelsea, albeit in different circumstances, with both having shorter contracts left.
According to AS, Real Madrid’s top signing is Borussia Dortmund midfielder, Jude Bellingham.
