"Real Madrid are doing their due diligence on potential midfield options. They are constantly doing work on potential targets. Under Juni Calafat they have transformed their recruitment and their ability to make the right moves. The midfield department is something they are looking at. They are not worried but are concerned about their depth, and I am told that Fernandez and Caicedo are two players they love and are watching them regularly."
"It's no secret that Real Madrid are keen on Fernandez, having followed him prior to his Chelsea move in 2023. However, it is Caicedo that would arguably be a better fit for what the La Liga giants need, which is a replacement for Toni Kroos who retired from football last summer. It remains to be seen whether a move is made by Real Madrid during next summer's transfer window, but if it were, it may be tough for Chelsea to keep hold of Caicedo or Fernandez."
Chelsea are expected to be major players in the next transfer window and could lose key squad members. Real Madrid have scouted Liverpool's Ibrahima Konate and are also tracking Chelsea midfielders Moises Caicedo and Enzo Fernandez. Under Juni Calafat, Real Madrid's recruitment has been overhauled and the club is assessing midfield depth while regularly monitoring Fernandez and Caicedo. Fernandez had been on Real Madrid's radar before joining Chelsea in 2023. Caicedo is viewed as a potential replacement for Toni Kroos. Any summer move would face high fees because both players were signed for over £100m.
