Real Madrid is reportedly considering Liverpool midfielder Dominik Szoboszlai as an “interesting option” to bolster their midfield, making him the fourth Reds player linked with the club in recent weeks. Liverpool is currently enjoying a strong season, sitting atop the Premier League and remaining unbeaten in the Champions League.

Under manager Arne Slot, the team has thrived, and maintaining squad cohesion will be crucial for their continued success. However, major interest in key players has emerged, with Szoboszlai capturing Real Madrid’s attention due to his performances this season. The report suggests that it could take an offer close to €100 million (£83.2m/$105m) to secure his transfer from Liverpool.

Madrid to face Szoboszlai, a long-time target

Szoboszlai plays as the most advanced midfielder in Liverpool’s setup, contributing two goals and three assists so far this season. Despite his energy and ability to perform off the ball, Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher has questioned his overall effectiveness compared to other elite attacking midfielders like Martin Ødegaard and Kevin De Bruyne. Carragher noted that Szoboszlai needs to be more productive in terms of goals and assists to justify a hefty transfer fee.

Real Madrid’s interest doesn’t stop with Szoboszlai; they are also reportedly monitoring his midfield partner Ryan Gravenberch, as well as other Liverpool stars like Trent Alexander-Arnold and Mohamed Salah. The potential departure of Szoboszlai could significantly impact Liverpool’s midfield, especially if combined with other exits.

As for Alexander-Arnold, his future remains uncertain with ongoing contract discussions and interest from Barcelona. Additionally, Luis Diaz has reportedly sought a pay rise amid interest from AC Milan. Manager Slot has shown confidence in Darwin Núñez, emphasizing that it’s only a matter of time before he finds his scoring touch, while the pursuit of Joao Pedro from Brighton could face competition from Chelsea.

Overall, while Szoboszlai is attracting attention, his current contributions may not warrant the significant investment that a transfer to Real Madrid would entail.
