Real Madrid are looking ahead to the first El Clasico of the season on Saturday, October 26, in LaLiga. Carlo Ancelotti's team will head into the game in good spirits following their 5-2 win over Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League on Tuesday, October 22.
Meanwhile, Los Blancos are planning to offer a Liverpool full-back a lucrative salary to move to the Santiago Bernabeu. Elsewhere, Arsenal have entered the race to sign Rodrygo Goes.
On that note, let's look at the major Real Madrid transfer stories from October 24, 2024.
Real Madrid plan massive offer for Trent Alexander-Arnold
According to Caught Offside, Real Madrid are willing to offer Trent Alexander-Arnold £14-15m per year to move to the Santiago Bernabeu in 2025. The English right-back has been identified as Dani Carvajal's heir at the Santiago Bernabeu.
Alexander-Arnold's contract with Liverpool is all set to run out at the end of this season and he hasn't agreed an extension. While the Merseyside giants would like him to extend his stay at Anfield, Los Blancos' proposal could dent their plans.
The LaLiga giants are already in talks with the player's agent to facilitate a deal. The 26-year-old could almost double his current wages if he agrees to the move, which could turn his head.
Although there's tremendous interest in his services, Real Madrid remain the favorites to lap him up. Jude Bellingham, a close friend of Alexander-Arnold, could also tilt the tide in Los Blancos' favor.
Meanwhile, the report adds that Liverpool have identified Bayer Leverkusen right-back Jeremie Frimpong, Monaco star Vanderson, and Fiorentina's Michael Kayode as his possible replacements.
Arsenal want Rodrygo Goes
Arsenal are battling Liverpool for the services of Rodrygo Goes, according to Fichajes. The Brazilian forward's future at Real Madrid has been subject to speculation since the arrival of Kylian Mbappe this summer.
However, the 23-year-old has been in the thick of things, registering three goals and two assists from 13 games across competitions. With Los Blancos blessed with a plethora of attacking talents, including new boys Mbappe and Endrick, Rodrygo could be allowed to leave for a fair fee.
Liverpool are already hot on his heels as they lay down succession plans for Mohamed Salah. The Gunners have entered the fray and the Premier League duo could test the water for the Brazilian in 2025.
Los Blancos suffer Alphonso Davies blow
According to SPORT, Alphonso Davies wants mouth-watering wages to join Real Madrid in 2025. The Canadian left-back's contract with Bayern Munich expires at the end of this season and he hasn't signed an extension yet.
Recent reports have stated that Los Blancos remain keen to take him to the Santiago Bernabeu. The LaLiga giants desire an upgrade on Ferland Mendy, and Davies could sort the left-back position for years.
It is believed that Bayern are resigned to losing their star player. However, the 23-year-old wants €15m signing bonus from his suitors, along with a four-year deal worth €10m net per year.
That could be a dealbreaker for Real Madrid as it would affect their transfer strategy. Recent reports have suggested that Barcelona are also eyeing the player with interest.
