Real Madrid has achieved very good results in the signing of central defenders this summer window. At least the team will not face a situation where no one is available in the new season, but considering that the existing lineup configuration is actually not enough to cope with the third-line combat, once the players have injury problems again, Real Madrid will encounter new troubles. Moreover, Militon and Alaba's condition cannot be guaranteed due to injuries in the past two seasons. If Real Madrid has the opportunity to sign a top central defender, they are willing to make a try, but Real Madrid doesn't seem to think so easily.

Judging from previous news, Real Madrid's main goal in the transfer market is to have achieved value and have sufficient capabilities, such as Arsenal's Saliba and Liverpool's Connaet. As the best central defender player in the Premier League, it is not surprising that the two have received attention from Real Madrid, but Real Madrid does not seem to be willing to pay the transfer fee. Since their contracts are about to expire next year, Real Madrid hopes that players can join the game without signing, especially Liverpool's Connaet, which is their key target for signing.

Real Madrid got Arnold in the summer window this year with a sign-free plan. Liverpool definitely does not want players to join Real Madrid again without signing, so the requirements for Connate are also very simple. They either renew their contract this summer window or are sold by the team. According to Spanish media, Real Madrid has also communicated with Conat, hoping that the players can last for 5 months. As long as they are delayed until the winter window opens, Real Madrid can reach an agreement with Conat and join in the summer window next year by sign-free. Real Madrid has prepared high salaries and signing fees for the players.

Real Madrid has no problem from a trading perspective. Although the team offered high salaries and also paid the signing fee, they did not need to pay the transfer fee, but they just gave the fee to the players. Naturally, there is no loss for Conat, but because of the visa-free method, you can get more income. But for Liverpool, not only are they unable to receive the transfer fee, but they cannot retain the players. The situation of losing both people and money is something the club does not want to see, so they keep putting pressure on Conat in the summer window.

Real Madrid's method is not their biggest goal. If there is a chance of signing, it will naturally not be missed. However, if you sign a contract this summer window, Real Madrid's competitiveness in the new season can be improved, which is also crucial for Real Madrid, who has achieved nothing last season. Therefore, they also made a quotation of 25 million euros for Conat, which is less than half of Konath's 60 million euros worth. Liverpool is definitely unwilling to accept it, and Real Madrid is not in a hurry, they have more patience.

It must be admitted that Real Madrid's approach is very clever from the club's perspective. When reaching an agreement with the players, Real Madrid has the initiative with only one year left in the contract. The opponent's club either accepts Real Madrid's low-priced transfer or faces free departure from the players. Both results are beneficial to Real Madrid. However, Real Madrid's methods have been seen through by more clubs. Liverpool will definitely not sit still and wait for death. They will also solve this problem by putting pressure on Conat.
