Real Madrid interested in signing Paris Saint-Germain star Willian Pacho: Reports
According to a report by Fichajes.net, Real Madrid have set their sights on Paris Saint-Germain defender Willian Pacho. With several injury concerns in their backline, Los Merengues are expected to focus on defensive reinforcements this summer.
The list of injuries for Real Madrid defenders at different points during this season is a long one. David Alaba started the season on the treatment table because of an ACL injury he picked up in December 2023. Even after his return, Alaba was briefly sidelined because of an adductor problem.
Eder Militao ruptured his ACL last year and has been ruled out for the rest of the season. Finally, Antonio Rudiger was sidelined because of a hamstring issue earlier this year but has made a comeback in recent matches.
Willian Pacho joined the Ligue 1 giants in the summer of 2024 from Eintracht Frankfurt for a reported €40 million transfer fee. The Ecuadorian has been integral for the Parisiens this season, playing 20 league games and keeping five clean sheets. He has also been included in the Ligue 1 Team of the Week twice.
Pacho's current contract with Paris Saint-Germain runs till the summer of 2029. It remains to be seen if Real Madrid can lure him out, especially after the tension that developed between the two clubs following Kylian Mbappe's transfer saga.
