The Spanish giants were linked with a potential move for him even before Calafiori joined Arsenal from Bologna in 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to <em>CaughtOffside<\/em>, the Spanish club have contacted people close to the player to determine whether he would be interested in a move to Madrid. However, Arsenal remain firm in their stance and are determined to keep the defender in their squad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Calafiori&#8217;s current market value is estimated at around \u20ac65 million, but his contract with the English club runs until 2029. For this reason, Arsenal could demand a significantly higher fee, reportedly as much as \u20ac100 million, before considering a sale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It remains to be seen whether Real Madrid will turn their interest into a formal offer and whether they will be willing to meet Arsenal&#8217;s financial demands for one of the London club&#8217;s key defenders.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Real Madrid remain interested in Arsenal defender Riccardo Calafiori, but the London club have no intention of letting the Italian leave easily.
