Real Madrid Linked With €75m Move for Liverpool’s Ryan Gravenberch at Alonso’s Request
Spanish reports tie the midfielder to Madrid interest, with Liverpool’s valuation and a 2028 contract pointing to a difficult deal in the near term.
Overview
- Fichajes reports that Xabi Alonso has asked Florentino Pérez to prioritise signing Ryan Gravenberch, a claim echoed by outlets including OneFootball and CaughtOffside.
- Liverpool are reported to value Gravenberch at around €75 million and hold him on a deal through 2028, indicating strong leverage to keep him.
- Coverage frames the target as a tactical fit for Alonso, envisioning a double pivot with Aurélien Tchouaméni rather than an opportunistic bid.
- Gravenberch has become integral under Arne Slot after joining from Bayern in 2023, featuring heavily in last season’s title run and starting this campaign with early goal contributions.
- Some reports suggest any concrete move is likelier in a later window, potentially after the 2026 World Cup, with Madrid’s broader interest in Liverpool players such as Ibrahima Konaté providing context following Trent Alexander-Arnold’s 2025 switch.
