Real Madrid Transfers: The best target at every position of need

RB: Noussair Mazraoui, Ajax

For right-back, Ajax’s dependable young man, Noussair Mazraoui strikes me as the best possible option. Although this was a hard position to choose a favorite. The top three in my opinion were Sporting’s Pedro Porro, Bayer Leverkusen’s Jeremie Frimpong, and Mazraoui. The Moroccan just edged the battle with a lesser price tag and a little more establishment as a player. Moreover, Mazraoui is versatile and at 24, he is quickly approaching his prime. He can play the number 6 role, a position that may need reinforcement soon.

LaLiga has had recent luck with Moroccan players in Sevilla’s Youssef En-Neysri and Real Madrid too can profit with the signing of this 24-year-old Moroccan who is currently putting fire on the Dutch stage. Together with Antony, Ajax’s attack on the right is transforming into one of the most effective combinations in Europe.

He is just the way a modern-day fullback should be with a good mix of attacking and defending prowess. He is exceptional with his dribbling and does a great job reading the game which reflects in his strong suit of tackling and intercepting. Real Madrid has been lacking their fullbacks contributing to the attack whenever Dani Carvajal isn’t available and Mazraoui is the kind of player who could solve that issue in an instant for Los Blancos. We shouldn’t rely on Lucas Vazquez’s nightmarish shifts.

As I said he has put the Dutch stage on fire, he has seven-goal contributions that include five goals and two assists in Eredivisie so far. He also had two sparkling assists in the Champions League, per WhoScored. The world is taking note and Mazraoui will soon come up in the market as a highly sought-after player this is the best time for Real Madrid to pull some strings and use their humongous appeal to rob in this fine young talent.

At 24 years of age, he is maturing brilliantly and his prime is yet ahead of him. He could be a great asset to this squad given he is brought in with enough financial sense. He is currently valued at 20 million euros by Transfermarkt and should be an absolute bargain at that price point. I expect his asking price to be higher than his valuation for sure. Moreover, Real Madrid should continue good business with players managed by Mino Raiola and keep the possibility alive for Erling Haaland to join forces with Karim Benzema for the striking duties.
