Real Madrid is closely monitoring the progress of Real Sociedad’s winger, Takefusa Kubo, as a potential future transfer target, despite the previous links to Manchester United.
In the ever-evolving world of football transfers, there’s a notable development on the radar of Real Madrid. They are closely eyeing Real Sociedad’s Takefusa Kubo as a potential acquisition for the future, despite earlier links with Manchester United. This insight comes courtesy of Fabrizio Romano, a renowned expert in the realm of transfer news, who has shared his views in his latest exclusive column for the Daily Briefing.
Romano doesn’t mince words when it comes to Kubo’s potential, describing him as a top talent capable of making an impact at a more prominent club. However, he wisely points out that this transfer is unlikely to occur in the immediate future.
For Manchester United, the departure of Jadon Sancho in January appears increasingly likely. This creates a void in their attacking ranks, but it’s uncertain whether Kubo is a viable option for the Red Devils. The young Japanese international is undeniably a rising star in the football world, and his future seems bright. Nevertheless, Real Madrid has already marked him as a player worth monitoring.
In Romano’s own words,
“Jadon Sancho’s situation will also be important to see if they do something in the offensive positions or not,” Romano said.
“There is still no price for Sancho, it will be important to see if it’s a permanent transfer or a loan – they will be open to any opportunity, though of course they’d probably favour a permanent transfer. Still, they know that in January it won’t be easy to find someone willing to pay something in the region of, and this is just my opinion, £50-55m, is not going to be easy. There is no change at the moment, no apology from Sancho, so it looks 90% over between him and the club.”
Regarding the quest to replace Sancho, Takefusa Kubo has emerged as a name in the rumor mill. Romano himself endorses Kubo as a fantastic option.
However, he underscores that, at this stage, there’s nothing concrete happening on that front. Kubo remains a pivotal player for Real Sociedad, and Real Madrid is also keeping a watchful eye on his progress for the future. As for other clubs, there are no talks on the horizon, and Romano doesn’t see a January move materializing.
“In terms of replacing Sancho, there have been reports about Takefusa Kubo and in my opinion he would be a fantastic option, Kubo is a top player. But I’m afraid there’s absolutely nothing concrete happening there from what I’m told.
“Kubo is a crucial player for Real Sociedad, also Real Madrid are still keeping an eye on him for the future. I’m not aware of any talk with other clubs at this stage, and I don’t think it’s one for January honestly.”
In summary, Take Kubo is a player of great promise, and his agility and trickery could inject a new dimension into any team’s attack. Football fans will undoubtedly keep a close watch on this talented young Japanese player’s journey in the world of football transfers.
