If the Merengue club is successful in this operation, the Austrian defender will no longer have to play on the left side but will focus on the center of defense (where he likes).
One day away from the end of the season and with nothing at stake, the real Madrid under the command of Florentino Pérez, ready engines for the summer market. ANDthe white president knows that the 2022-23 campaign ended the day Manchester City eliminated them from the Champions League. From that moment, the president was left with a thorn in his head that he plans to remove in the next course.
The positive side of the elimination in the Champions League is that it motivated Florentino in a big way, who is thinking of signing the best of the best. There are several positions that he has to cover, and this time he has focused on the left side, where Ferland Mendy is the main candidate to leave. The player who will replace him is a close friend of David Alaba, when they shared at Bayern Munich.
David Alaba agrees to help Florentino Pérez so that Real Madrid signs Davies
After Marcelo left the Merengue team, the left side was never the same again. Mendy’s poor performance, accompanied by his multiple injuries, have caused Ancelotti to improvise with players like Nacho Fernández, Eduardo Camavinga, and Alaba. Precisely the latter has stated that he does not like to play in this position, and has promised to help in this signing so that he is never put in this position again.
During his time at Gigante de Baviera, the Austrian became good friends with Canadian Alphonso Davies, who plays on the left lane very naturally. Florentino’s strategy is for Alaba himself to convince the former Vancouver Whitecaps, guaranteeing his ownership. And it is that at the moment there are no left-backs that give the stature, because Fran García has not yet arrived.
The sale of Mendy is important, so that Florentino Pérez consolidates the arrival of Davies at Real Madrid
Alphonso Davies is one of the most valuable and expensive players in the Bavarian squad, occupying exactly the number 4 position, with a price tag of 70 million euros. His contract runs until 2025, and Thomas Tuchel’s intention is not to let him leave under any circumstances. In addition, his salary at Bayern Munich is 10 kilos per year.
With all these economic aspects in mind, Florentino Pérez knows that yes or yes they must sell Ferland Mendy, to start negotiating for the Canadian winger. But the most important thing is that the player is convinced to wear white, and Alaba works on that channel. The summer market is approaching and with it the culmination of this fabulous signing.
