Real Madrid will be unbreakable at the back if thery sign him
What’s the story?
Real Madrid have identified Leonardo Bonucci as the ideal replacement for Pepe according to Don Balon. The Spanish publication has reported that the defender is Zidane's #1 choice after his impressive display against Barcelona in the UEFA Champions League last 8.
Los Blancos are ready to pay £60 million for the Italian – a world record fee for a defender in the history of football. David Luiz is still the most expensive defender in the world thanks to PSG, who paid £50 million to sign him from Chelsea.
Madrid are planning a squad overhaul in the summer and want to have an experienced defender in the squad alongside Ramos. Pepe is set to be released at the end of the season while Varane is also being linked with a move away.
In case you didn’t know...
Pepe's contract at Real Madrid expires in the summer, and he's free to discuss a pre-contract with any club abroad. The La Liga giants are yet to start negotiations with the defender despite him having just months left on his contract.
The Portuguese international is reportedly set for a move to China. He has reportedly been offered a 3-year contract worth €55 million by an unnamed Chinese club.
Chinese clubs have been on a spending spree recently and have signed several top stars
