Real Madrid hierarchy backs German defender for January
Bayer Leverkusen’s Jonathan Tah Linked to Real Madrid Move
Bayer Leverkusen’s talented defender, Jonathan Tah, is rumored to be on the move from the BayArena soon. Initially, it seemed like he might leave when his contract expires in the summer, but Real Madrid’s urgent need for defensive reinforcements could expedite his transfer, possibly in January.
Potential Move to Real Madrid
According to reports from Diario AS, Tah is one of the players being considered by Real Madrid’s decision-makers. With his contract situation, he could be available for a reduced fee. Notably, Tah has showcased his quality in the previous season and shares a connection with Antonio Rudiger from the German national team.
Competition for Tah’s Signature
At the moment, Tah is seen as plan C for Real Madrid, behind other defensive targets like Castello Lukeba from RB Leipzig and Aymeric Laporte from Al-Nassr. Despite being linked to Barcelona and Bayern Munich, a move in the winter transfer window seems unlikely for Tah. However, he could be the most cost-effective option for Real Madrid, aligning with their recent focus on prudent spending.
