Real Madrid are currently monitoring the market for a right-back and, if they fail to land Liverpool star Trent Alexander-Arnold, Diogo Dalot could be an alternative for the La Liga champions.
The Spanish giants have been without their starting right-back Dani Carvajal for most of the current campaign after the defender suffered a serious knee injury at the start of the season.
Alexander-Arnold is seen in Madrid as the 32-year-old’s short- and long-term replacement as the Champions League winners hope to bring the English talent to the Bernabeu sometime in 2025.
The full-back is out of contract at Anfield at the end of the season and will be able to join Real Madrid on a free transfer at the end of his term, with David Ornstein admitting that Alexander-Arnold is likely to opt for a new challenge ahead of the 2025/26 campaign.
The Daily Mail even suggest that the La Liga champions have not given up hope of a January sale, with the hierarchy in Madrid ready to sign Alexander-Arnold for £20m this month.
If the Spanish team fails, they do have alternatives on their list.
Diogo Dalot remains an option for Real Madrid
according to iNewsReal Madrid are desperate to find a replacement for Carvajal as soon as possible and are ready to bring Man United’s Diogo Dalot to the Bernabeu in 2025, if they fail to land their top target in Alexander-Arnold.
It would be a surprise move for the La Liga champions as the Portuguese full-back is nothing special, producing six goals and 12 assists in 186 appearances for United.

It is also uncertain whether the 25-year-old would be open to a move to Spain, but given Man United’s current situation, a move to Real Madrid is not something the defender is likely to turn down.
