Real Madrid have reportedly shortlisted three defenders for the upcoming summer transfer window. As Xabi Alonso is set to become next manager of Real Madrid, the club is eyeing a move for new defender on priority. Bournemouth’s Dean Huijsen, William Saliba, and Ibrahima Konate are on their shortlist for the summer. Xabi Alonso will surely have a new centre-back in the next season and time will say who among these three joins the Los Blancos.

As Xabi Alonso prepares to take over the managerial reins at Real Madrid this summer, the Spanish giants have reportedly drawn up a shortlist of three central defenders to bolster their backline ahead of the 2025/26 season. Strengthening the defence is said to be a top priority for the incoming boss.

The trio under consideration includes Bournemouth’s Dean Huijsen, Arsenal’s William Saliba, and Liverpool’s Ibrahima Konaté. All three offer different profiles—Huijsen brings youth and potential, Saliba is known for his composure and positional awareness, while Konaté offers physicality and pace.

Real Madrid are looking to future-proof their defence with Carlo Ancelotti’s era nearing its end and the club’s backline aging. With Xabi Alonso keen to implement his tactical philosophy, a reliable and commanding centre-back is essential.
