The Real Madrid half league is played against him Seville the next Sunday. After removal in Champions, only the bullet of the local competition remains. However, the board is also thinking about next season and already has a list of futures that could reinforce the squad next season. In it is the name Jules Koundé (22 years), central visiting the Gave Stefano Sunday and what He has scouts from Madrid and other greats following him for months.
The Frenchman knew that if he wanted to play, he would have to recover from some muscular discomfort that he has been dragging on for two weeks. “It is improving and we believe that it will be available“, commented the environment of the player to this newspaper a few days ago regarding his participation in Sunday's game. He has finally entered the call and points to ownership. His desire to step on Di Stéfano's lawn and be able to show off against Zidane and the white directive have served as motivation.
Koundé has been sounding for several weeks as a possible reinforcement for the Madrid defense. The reality is that the club has the idea that Varane leave the team this season and, with the money they raise with their departure, they can sign a center back as a replacement as long as the price is not excessive. Then, Koundé is the number one candidate along with Pau Torres, Villarreal defender. The Frenchman is in the pools, the problem is that Sevilla is not going to sell him cheap as he has already shown in other markets. Its clause is 80 million, although from the player's environment they assure this newspaper that they hope they will be allowed to leave if a club offers 60. Of course, Madrid would need a greater reduction to face the signing.
Whites are not the only ones interested. The Manchester United or the Chelsea They have approached the footballer to find out his situation and prepare an offer for the next market. However, nothing is sure yet and Kooundé prefers to keep all avenues open. Nor does he rule out staying at Sevilla for another year. Against Madrid he will have the eyes of all Europe on him.
