Grimaldo’s Potential Spain Debut Raises Eyebrows: Real Madrid Admiration Amid Euro 2024 Qualifiers

Alejandro Grimaldo

As Spain readies for their crucial Euro 2024 qualifying clashes against Cyprus and Georgia, all eyes are on Alejandro Grimaldo, who could mark his senior international debut after earning his first La Roja call-up earlier this month.

The 28-year-old left-back, showcasing consistent stellar performances for Bayer Leverkusen since his summer move from Benfica, is set to vie with Jose Gaya for the starting position. Gaya, the Valencia captain, has been declared fit and available following an injury scare.

Grimaldo, a product of Barcelona’s youth system, disclosed his admiration for Real Madrid in a recent interview with OK Diario (via Sport). While expressing his appreciation for Los Blancos as one of the world’s top teams, Grimaldo emphasized his current commitment to Bayer Leverkusen, where he has been thriving for the past three months.

“Real Madrid are one of the best teams in the world, if not the best, and it’s a team that every player wants to go to, but at the moment I’m at Bayer Leverkusen. I’ve been here for three months, and everything is going great. We have to keep working, and we’ll see what happens in the future,” Grimaldo stated.

Interestingly, Real Madrid is reportedly eyeing a new left-back next summer, with current attention focused on Bundesliga star Alphonso Davies from Bayern Munich. Grimaldo’s acknowledgment of Real Madrid’s stature adds an intriguing layer to the ongoing speculations surrounding the club’s transfer targets.
