Real Madrid are working to improve their squad after an underwhelming 2024-25 campaign. The LaLiga giants have already roped in Dean Huijsen and Trent Alexander-Arnold this summer.
Meanwhile, Los Blancos have won the race to sign an Argentine starlet this summer. Elsewhere, Arsenal are interested in Rodrygo.
On that note, let's look at the major Real Madrid transfer stories from June 7, 2025.

Franco Mastantuono
Real Madrid have reached an agreement with River Plate for the services of Franco Mastantuono, according to MARCA (via Madrid Universal). The highly rated Argentine talent was also wanted by Paris Saint-Germain (PSG), but it now appears that Los Blancos have beaten them to his services.
The LaLiga giants will apparently pay the Argentine side around €45m for the 17-year-old, with the amount to be paid in four instalments. Mastantuono has reportedly agreed on personal terms ahead of the move and will sign a six-year deal until 2031.
An announcement is likely next week, but the Argentine is unlikely to arrive in time to feature at the FIFA Club World Cup. River Plate are apparently eager for the player to represent them at this summer's tournament.

Rodrygo Goes
Arsenal are keeping a close eye on Rodrygo Goes, according to acclaimed journalist Fabrizio Romano. The Brazilian's future at Real Madrid remain up in the air, and the Gunners are apparently plotting to prise him away this summer.
Speaking on his YouTube channel 'Fabrizio Romano,' as cited by CaughtOffside, Romano added that Los Blancos have yet to receive an offer for Rodrygo.
“Rodrygo is a player appreciated by Arsenal. There are no doubts about that. For sure he’s a player they like. For sure Arsenal will add an important winger this season to the squad. So Arsenal will be busy in the next weeks, the striker, the winger. So it’s going to be an important window for Arsenal. We all know that,” said Romano.
He continued:
“Rodrygo is a player they like internally. I would say of course a great player, a top top player. But at the moment, my understanding is that Real Madrid are yet to receive any official approach, official talks, bid or whatever.”
He concluded:
“At the moment is an internal appreciation for Rodrygo, but Real Madrid are yet to receive any formal proposal or any formal approach. Let’s see what Arsenal will decide to do. Probably will also depend on the budget. How much they have to spend on the winger. This is going to be important.”
The Brazilian's contract with the LaLiga giants runs until 2028.

Alvaro Rodriguez
Real Madrid are ready to listen to offers for Alvaro Rodriguez this summer, according to MARCA (via Madrid Universal). The 20-year-old forward spent the last season on loan at Getafe and is now back at the Santiago Bernabeu.
However, his future is up in the air, with Rodriguez no longer guaranteed regular football with Los Blancos. The club understand that he needs regular game time to continue his development.
As such, the LaLiga giants are willing to let him go either on loan or on a permanent transfer. However, they are likely to insert smart clauses in his deal, like a buy-back clause or a sell-on clause.

Deepungsu is a veteran football journalist who has been covering daily transfer roundups and news for over six years at Sportskeeda. He has written over 9000 articles for the website, and has garnered close to 20 million reads.
Deepungsu holds a PG degree in Microbiology and an MBA degree in Total Quality Management. He has an extensive two-decade long writing experience, which includes a decade of sports blogging. His writing prowess has even led his work getting cited on the legendary Franz Beckenbauer's Wikipedia page.
Inspired by Diego Maradona, Deepungsu played as an attacking midfielder for his local club at subdivision level in his initial years and scored an important goal or two. However, his all-time favorite footballer is Lionel Messi, and evidently, he feels Argentina's glory in 2022 is his favorite FIFA World Cup moment for fulfilling his long-standing dream. He is also an ardent East Bengal fan.
Deepungsu has been a Manchester United supporter since the year 2000. Unsurprisingly, his favorite manager is Sir Alex Ferguson and the Scotsman helped him get through some of the toughest days of his life. Like the fiery Scot, Deepungsu also leaves no stone unturned when it comes to accuracy in articles and only relies on credible sources.
Despite believing in Kylian Mbappe and Erling Haaland to create an iconic rivalry, Deepungsu reckons no one can match the longevity of Messi and Ronaldo. He spends his leisure time writing about life on his blog, reading books, and playing the guitar.
