Real Madrid keen on signing 4 players next summer as Florentino Perez looks to bolster squad: Reports

Real Madrid president Florentino Perez could be set for a spending spree next summer as he looks to bolster the squad with four key additions.

As per reports from Spanish outlet El Nacional, Los Blancos are interested in strengthening their squad with some more talented players. All four players have two things in common - they are all attackers and are also Nigerian.

Victor Boniface is first on the list, having burst onto the scene this season with his excellent performances for Bayer Leverkusen. The German outfit paid €20 million to Union Saint-Gilloise for the forward and he has hit the ground running for his new club.

Boniface has bagged nine goals and three assists in 10 appearances across competitions this season. Aged just 22, his career trajectory is very much on the rise and Leverkusen could command a huge fee from Real Madrid for him. However, manager Xabi Alonso's ties with Los Blancos could come in handy.

Next up is Napoli's main man Victor Osimhen, who has been one of the top strikers in Europe for the last few seasons. Having scored 31 goals and provided five assists in 39 appearances across competitions last year, Osimhen was marked to depart for a huge fee this summer. His sour relationship with current coach Rudi Garcia could accelerate the move in the near future.

AC Milan's Samuel Chukwueze is another name on the list, having joined from Villarreal in the summer, while OGC Nice's Terem Moffi completes the four-man shortlist.

Florentino Perez is likely to go in for the initial two players thinking of their impact for their respective clubs and it remains to be seen which Nigerian talent moves to Real Madrid.

Vinicius Junior was set to be presented with a new contract extension by Real Madrid after his impressive showings for the club.

However, as per transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, the club have been forced to postpone the ceremony due to president Florentino Perez's health.

Perez is currently recovering from COVID and is not fit to attend ceremonies until further notice. The ceremony for Vinicius' contract was supposed to take place this week but has been rescheduled.
