Marca newspaper revealed that Real Madrid refused to sign one of Manchester City’s stars in the current winter Mercato.
We are talking here about right-back Kyle Walker, who according to “Marca” offered his services to the royal club at the beginning of January.
The English international was ready to move to Real Madrid for only 6 months, but the Merengue management rejected the idea.
Florentino Perez and his assistants saw that signing Walker at the age of 34 contradicts the club’s policy of signing only distinguished young players.
Even despite the urgent need for a right-back in light of Dani Carvajal’s injury and the absence of only Lucas Vazquez, Real Madrid preferred to continue with the same policy and not violate it by signing Walker, even for a temporary period.
It remains to be noted that Walker’s levels declined significantly this season and made him the subject of severe criticism from City fans, so he decided to leave and eventually head to Milan.
