Ancelotti plans world domination with attacks on Liverpool and Man City, followed by the final attack on Arsenal

According to a report, Real Madrid are ready to flex their muscles in the transfer market by pulling off a monumental triple raid on Liverpool, Manchester City and Arsenal in 2025.

Real Madrid are already the dominant force in European football, having won two of the last three Champions League titles, and with the revamped and vastly expanded Club World Cup (to be played in the US) making its debut next summer, Los Blancos are looking to extend their football dominance across the world too.

And after half a decade of relatively cautious spending – which has seen younger players and several free agents targeted – the Spanish giant is now ready to open the checkbook. According to Independent They say there are three huge moves planned for 2025.

Firstly, Real Madrid are hoping to offload Rodri from Man City, with the report stating that they believe the midfielder, at his best, would ultimately want to return to Spain to play for the club.

Liverpool right-back Trent Alexander-Arnold is also wanted, although Real Madrid may not have to pay a transfer fee in his case. The 25-year-old's contract expires at the end of the season and he is reportedly in “constant contact” with Real Madrid star Jude Bellingham. The pair originally became friends while playing for England.

Finally, Real Madrid hope to complete their winning streak with the signing of Arsenal centre-back William Saliba. Of the three, Real Madrid reportedly believe Saliba will be the most difficult to sign “due to Arsenal's growing strength”.

An alternative target on Real Madrid's radar in case Saliba is unattainable is Tottenham centre-back Cristian Romero.

Updates on the deals with Rodri, Alexander-Arnold, Saliba and Romero

Accordingly the athleteMan City are not too worried about losing Rodri to Real Madrid.

A report published on Tuesday, September 17, claimed that Man City had responded to the links with Real Madrid by offering Rodri a “huge new contract”.

Furthermore, according to the report, Real Madrid will not be able to come anywhere close to the salary Man City has offered. Los Blancos will also reportedly struggle to finance the transfer fee Man City would demand.

One factor that could work in Real Madrid's favor would be a severe punishment for the alleged violations of the FFP.

The Independent stated that Real Madrid is monitoring the progress of the hearing at City “closely”.

As for Alexander-Arnold, TEAMtalk revealed on Tuesday that Real Madrid are in regular contact with the right-back's agents at PLG Group. Real Madrid have made their intention to sign the Reds star crystal clear.

However, we also know that the player is happy at Liverpool and that they are ready to make him one of the highest-paid players in their history.

But the longer a new contract is not forthcoming, the more speculation will circulate about the dynamic defender.

In addition, Real Madrid super scout Juni Calafat is said to be present at the North London derby on Sunday. The two players who will come under his watchful eye are said to be Saliba and Romero, and the update from the Independent supports these claims.

Real Madrid is also known to be courting Bayern Munich left-back Alphonso Davies, who, like Alexander-Arnold, could be out of contract next summer.

Romero's attitude towards Real Madrid / Inter wants centre-back for Liverpool

Spurs vice-captain Romero is reportedly “ready to join” Real Madrid, possibly in a deal that could be completed as early as January.

Romero's poor form at Tottenham has been in the spotlight this season, but his exemplary performances for Argentina in recent years suggest he can be world class on his good days.

Elsewhere, a player who was underused by Arne Slot in the early stages of his tenure at Liverpool is now attracting interest from Inter Milan.

In other news, TEAMtalj was able to confirm that Liverpool are seriously interested in signing new England international Angel Gomes.

The 24-year-old midfielder has shone at club level for Lille since leaving Manchester United four years ago, and his contract expires next summer.
