Toni Kroos recommends Perez to sign a golden deal and sna.tch the player from Barcelona

Big moves are taking place in Florentino Pérez’s office, with a new contract set to be finalized in the coming days.

Toni Kroos, taking on a sporting director-like role, has suggested the name of an intriguing player to Florentino, who could be a valuable signing for Real Madrid. The club is focused on planning for the 2025-26 season, particularly to bolster the defense, which has been identified as the weakest link in Carlo Ancelotti’s squad.

Ancelotti has emphasized the team’s needs, which go beyond the names like Alphonso Davies, Trent Alexander-Arnold, or Florian Wirtz, often discussed by Real Madrid fans. Strengthening the defense is a top priority for Real Madrid this summer, especially after the challenges faced last season. Juni Calafat has been leading the efforts in this area but could use additional support.

According to reports from Spanish outlet Defensa Central, the list of potential defensive reinforcements for Ancelotti’s side includes players such as Cuti Romero, William Saliba, Antonio Silva, Jarrad Branthwaite, and Gonzalo Inácio. However, Jonathan Tah, the current Bayer Leverkusen defender, is emerging as a strong option to improve the club’s backlineThe former Real Madrid player visited the Santiago Bernabéu last weekend for the Villarreal match, and Toni Kroos took the chance to reconnect with teammates, while also discussing matters with Florentino Pérez and José Ángel Sánchez. Kroos has recommended the signing of Jonathan Tah, a center-back he knows well, who will be available on a free transfer when his contract with Bayer Leverkusen expires in June 2025.

These suggestions from the Real Madrid legend come at a critical time, as the club looks to bring in a new defender before the next summer window, and Tah has the quality to make an immediate impact upon his arrival.
