Real Madrid Rejects Multiple High-Value Transfer Offers Including Paquetá, Valverde
Real Madrid concluded the summer transfer window without any deals, notably rejecting a late loan request from Girona for goalkeeper Andriy Lunin, who remains Thibaut Courtois's backup with limited playing time under coach Xabi Alonso. Barcelona star Pedri revealed he once trialed at Real Madrid but was rejected for not meeting their standards, a decision now seen as a significant scouting oversight given his rise to elite status. Meanwhile, Real Madrid dismissed interest in West Ham’s Lucas Paquetá, opting instead to focus on signing Paris Saint-Germain’s Vitinha, whom they consider a better fit for replacing aging midfielders like Luka Modrić and Toni Kroos. Additionally, despite Chelsea's reported €100 million bid, Real Madrid firmly retained midfielder Fede Valverde, who is committed to the club with a contract until 2029 and aims to continue contributing as a key player and future captain. These decisions reflect Real Madrid's strategic focus on specific players aligned with their long-term vision, rejecting alternatives that do not fit their profile or plans. The club remains patient and selective in transfer dealings as it builds its squad under Alonso’s management.
