Real Madrid Eyes Brazilian Forward Marcos Leonardo in Potential January Move

Real Madrid is reportedly considering a January move for Brazilian forward Marcos Leonardo from Santos. The 20-year-old talent has attracted interest from Los Blancos, who have a track record of signing promising Brazilian players, including the likes of Vinicius Junior and Rodrygo.

With Leonardo expected to be available for a transfer fee ranging from €15-20 million, Real Madrid has been informed of this opportunity by the player’s agent. Although Roma and Newcastle United are also in the race for Leonardo’s signature, Real Madrid’s stature in the football world could provide them with a significant advantage if they decide to make a move during the winter transfer window.

The forward position has become a priority for Real Madrid, especially with Vinicius Junior sidelined until 2024 due to a hamstring injury. The potential acquisition of Marcos Leonardo could bolster the team’s attacking options and contribute to their ongoing efforts to strengthen the squad.
