🔥 In a seismic twist shaking up the summer transfer market, Real Madrid have officially cooled interest in RB Leipzig’s rising star Castello Lukeba, despite his glowing reputation as one of Europe’s top young center-backs. The reason? A bold shift toward a record-breaking, €100M swoop for Arsenal’s William Saliba!
💸 Sources from Defensa Central confirm that Madrid chiefs refuse to pay €55M for a player not guaranteed to start, signaling a major pivot in the club’s strategy. While Lukeba has the traits of a modern-day Madrid defender—composure, power, and top-tier ball distribution—he’s now been benched from Florentino Perez’s wishlist.
🎯 The new priority? None other than William Saliba, the French rock anchoring Arsenal’s defense. At just 24, Saliba is Florentino’s dream signing, a proven elite defender who could redefine Madrid’s backline for the next decade. But there’s a twist: with a contract until 2027 and a monstrous €100M price tag, he’d become the most expensive defender in history.
⚠️ With Madrid’s current crisis—Rüdiger battling fitness, Alaba and Militao sidelined—Perez is going all in, ready to break the bank to rebuild the wall at the Bernabéu.
💥 It’s official: Lukeba OUT, Saliba IN (if Perez gets his way)! This is not just a transfer—it’s a power move that could shake Europe to its core. Stay tuned.
