Real Madrid continues to have William Saliba on its radar as one of the main options to strengthen its central defense. The French center-back, established as a key player for Arsenal, is highly rated by the white sports management, but his signing will not be easy. London has made it clear that they will not make it easy for him to leave unless an exceptional offer is made... or unless two very specific names are included in the deal: Arda Güler and Endrick.

The 'gunner' team values Saliba at €100 million, a sum that doesn't intimidate Real Madrid but is deemed excessive given the circumstances. Therefore, as reported by DefensaCentral, Arsenal would be willing to lower their demands somewhat if Florentino Pérez agrees to include two of his top talents in the deal, something that is currently completely ruled out. The white club has no intention of letting go of either of the two players, considered vital for the team's future.

Real Madrid sees him as the new leader of their defense

Saliba is under contract with Arsenal until 2027, so if he does not renew and stands firm, a window of opportunity may open for Real Madrid to negotiate under better conditions in the summer of 2026. In that scenario, the London club could be forced to sell to avoid losing the player at a discounted price or even for free the following year.

Meanwhile, the 'merengue' entity also closely follows other young defenders like Hato or Huijsen, who could join in future transfer windows. Valdebebas maintains a patient strategy and trusts that players who truly want to wear white will do what it takes to join Chamartín. Saliba, if he wishes to be part of this project, must take the first step.
