The transfers that Olabe and Imanol they had as priorities are already done and at this time there is no intention to undertake a new contract, but the summer is very long, there are 41 days left on the football market and many things can happen. As MD has learned, the Real, after the large investment of 31 million euros made to hire Momo Cho, Brais Méndez y Kubo, he has no need to sell any of his most important players in the squad. But, on the other hand, he does harbor the fear that this will happen in the last stages of this transfer window and the one they are most alert for is Alexander Isaacnow the only pure center forward in the first team.
It is a fear that came up at the Council meeting that took place this week and that has two bases: the first is that, as you said Aperribaythere are several teams that have been interested in the situation of the Swedish striker, although at the moment there are no firm offers on the table, and the second is that the planning of the current squad has been designed with the presence of Isak at the spearhead. They have brought in three attacking players who are perfectly compatible with the Scandinavian, thinking that they can enhance his virtues. The technicians believe that the last to arrive, Take Kubo, you can receive between lines to enable the realistic ’19’ to space. They also consider that the duo of him with Cho at the spearhead can be corrosive for rival defenses due to the explosiveness and stride of both.

90 ‘kilos’ difficult to reach
Isak is very well armored by Real with a contract until 2026 with the highest termination clause in the club’s history: 90 million euros. However, it is clear that no interested club would come close to that amount, and even less so after the last season of Isak. The risk is that they offer half or an even lower amount and convince the footballer that he asks to leave, because proposals could come that are difficult to reject due to sports and economics.
In this sense, as MD has learned, Real Madrid is still very interested in Isak. She doesn’t lose sight of him. Even given the friendship of Florentino Perez con Jokin Aperribaywhich is why an operation that seemed complex like that of Kubothe white club has asked to be informed of possible offers from other clubs and movements to sign him.
I wanted Gabriel Jesus
After not being able to sign Gabriel Jesusas was your wish, Carlo Ancelotti would request the signing of another battering ram, a substitute for Benzemaas long as they managed to release Mariano, Mayoral y Marco Asensio. And that’s where the realist could come in. He is well known, moreover, the interest of a Premier League team like Newcastle United. And in his day, Liverpool also made a very insufficient proposal for the Swede.
The risk is there, despite the fact that at Anoeta they know that Isak he places great value on where he is and what the Real offers him. Since his renewal last year, he is on the first rung of the salary scale with the other differential players in the squad: Mikel Oyarzabal y Mikel Merino. But beyond the money, and considering that in other latitudes they could pay him more than double, what the striker appreciates is the role he has in the squad, the confidence of the coach and the support of the stands even in his moments of greatest drought. That’s cinnamon sticks when you’re 22 years old and have more than a decade of career ahead of you. These conditions beyond their emoluments cannot be guaranteed in any other team with higher ambitions.
In any case, until the market closes both in the League and in the Premier and other competitions on September 1 at 11:59 p.m., nothing can be ruled out.
