Florentino Pérez is one of the best presidents in the world and his management of Real Madrid is the perfect reflection of that. Los Merengues have managed to attract top footballers who want to be part of the club's squad. The Madrid side have gone through a bad year, but they want to correct their mistakes and are already working to fix them.
Real Madrid have finished a season practically without trophies, which has led Florentino Pérez to make a decision. Xabi Alonso's arrival has been a turning point and results are starting to come. Now, the president could make a move similar to Trent Alexander-Arnold's.
Trent Alexander-Arnold, the move Florentino Pérez wants to repeat
Trent Alexander-Arnold has been one of Real Madrid's signings that has caused the most discussion in recent months. Florentino Pérez always secures great signings at ridiculous prices and the former Liverpool full-back was one of them. Despite having a market value of more than €70 million, he only cost €10 million.
Florentino Pérez wants to make Real Madrid return to the top of world soccer and the solution is to secure another major signing. Xabi Alonso is building the squad to his liking and has left out footballers who were not expected. The coach doesn't care about pressure and prefers to make decisions on his own, without external opinions.
For now, it seems that the coach's decisions are the right ones and this has been proven more than enough in recent matches. Interestingly, there is still debate about the '9' position, since it is currently occupied by a homegrown player. Apparently, Florentino Pérez wants to repeat the Trent Alexander-Arnold signing and bring in a defender, but it won't be an easy task.
Florentino Pérez's repetition
Florentino Pérez is interested in Liverpool's center-back, Ibrahima Konaté, the Frenchman who has had great years in professional soccer. The center-back's contract with the English side ends in 2026 and it is known that he would only leave for Real Madrid. If he doesn't renew and starts talking with Florentino Pérez, Los Merengues could push to buy him for very little.
If this happens, it would be a repeat of what happened with Trent Alexander-Arnold, who made the same move with Liverpool. We will have to keep a close eye on Ibrahima Konaté so we don't miss any possible updates. Over the coming months, we will receive more information about his possible future.
