Brahim Diaz could be the subject of a major transfer move after reports emerged of a lucrative offer from the Saudi Pro League.
The Moroccan midfielder, currently enjoying a strong season with Real Madrid, has reportedly attracted an €80 million bid from an unnamed Saudi club.
According to Spanish media, the proposal has not gone unnoticed by the Madrid hierarchy, with financial considerations coming into play as the club looks to restructure ahead of the summer transfer window.
With competition for places expected to intensify at the Bernabéu next season, speculation is growing over whether Diaz might be allowed to leave.
Real Madrid weighs up its options
Despite Diaz’s increasing influence in Carlo Ancelotti’s squad, the club may see this as an opportunity to capitalize on a substantial financial offer.
While Real Madrid has no immediate need to offload key players, the sheer size of the bid could tempt the club’s management to consider their options, particularly as they prepare for new arrivals in the summer.
However, sources close to the club indicate that a departure remains unlikely.
Diaz has become a crucial figure in Madrid’s rotation, often stepping up in key moments when called upon.
His technical ability and versatility have made him an asset, and there is a sense that Madrid would prefer to keep him as a long-term option rather than cashing in.
Ancelotti’s confidence in Diaz
Carlo Ancelotti has played down the transfer speculation, reaffirming his trust in the 24-year-old.
“We can’t say that Brahim is an undisputed starter, but he is very important. He knows how to make the most of every minute I give him, he is a valuable player for us,” the Italian coach stated.
These comments highlight Diaz’s growing role in the squad, even if he is not yet a guaranteed starter.
His ability to impact games off the bench and contribute in multiple attacking positions makes him a useful asset for Madrid as they continue to challenge on multiple fronts.
Diaz committed to Real Madrid
Despite the financial allure of a move to Saudi Arabia, Diaz has given no indication that he is looking to leave.
The Moroccan international has repeatedly expressed his ambition to cement his place at Real Madrid and prove his worth at one of the world’s biggest clubs.
For now, it appears that while Saudi clubs are willing to make an aggressive push for European talent, Diaz remains focused on his Madrid career.
Unless there is a significant shift in circumstances, he is expected to stay at the Bernabéu and continue competing for a more prominent role in Ancelotti’s plans.
