According to a fresh report in Spanish football media, Real Madrid will wrap up a new deal for Moroccan star Brahim Diaz amid interest from the Premier League.
While Diaz played a bit-part role for Madrid during the last couple of seasons, the 25-year-old was constantly linked with a move away from the world-renowned club.
Arsenal were among the first club’s linked with Diaz, while Manchester United reportedly made contact with Madrid during the last 48-hours.
The Red Devils have been linked with numerous attacking players in the last couple of weeks, with Ruben Amorim said to be keen on bolstering his number 10 position for the 2025/26 season.
However, transfer specialist Fabrizio Romano revealed that Diaz will sign a new deal with Madrid ‘very soon’.
The news could well come as a blow to Manchester United, who have also been in talks with Cameroon star Bryan Mbeumo.
However, the Brentford talisman is believed to be interested in joining Spurs, following their UEFA Champions League qualification via lifting the 2025 UEFA Europa league trophy.
