Real Madrid quickly took Spinazzola seriously
Leonardo Spinazzola is one of the Italian players who made a strong impression at EURO 2020, with the award for Best Player of the Opening match. Thanks to that, he was in the target market of Real Madrid and the Royal team also quickly made an action plan.
AS reported that the 28-year-old's representative met with Los Blancos in southern France. There, Real Madrid expressed their intention to exchange players with AS Roma. Last season, they lent Roma Borja Mayoral with a broken buy clause of 20 million Euros. However, the Olimpico team could not cover that cost, so Real Madrid proposed to exchange players.
Spinazzola arrived at Roma from Juventus in 2019, also in an exchange deal with Luca Pellegrini.
