Unveiling Grimaldo's Adoration for the Galácticos
Is Real Madrid luring Leverkusen's talent?
The buzz surrounding Spanish powerhouse, Real Madrid, has sparked interest in Bayer Leverkusen's head coach Xabi Alonso (41). And it seems one Leverkusen star isn't adverse to a move to Madrid himself...
Grimaldo's Glowing Testimony to Madrid
Shining brightly on the international stage, Alejandro Grimaldo (28), with six goals and five assists in eleven Bundesliga matches, showcased his prowess once again in the Spanish national team's win over Cyprus (3:1).
In an interview with "Okdiario," the left-back shared his aspirations, saying: "I have many years ahead of me, and I'm unsure of what the future holds. But yes, I'd love to play in Spain someday because it's a league I've always wanted to play in, at home."
When asked about the top-tier club Real Madrid, he added, "It's one of the world's finest teams, if not the best. It's a club every player dreams of joining. But for now, I'm in Leverkusen."
Grimaldo's Gratitude to Leverkusen
Despite his admiration for Spanish football, Grimaldo emphasized his happiness in Leverkusen, sharing, "I'm incredibly content in Leverkusen. I'm relishing these months. I've only been here a short while, and I yearn for even more achievements."
His Unwavering Support for Alonso and Leverkusen
Grimaldo praises both the club and Bayer's coach Xabi Alonso, stating, "When Xabi calls you and insists on building a strong team that he trusts you, it carries weight. Leverkusen has put their faith in me, and they said they would sign quality players. And so they did, leaving me very happy with my decision."
Grimaldo Tackles Barcelona's Pass
Regarding his former club Barcelona, Grimaldo admitted, "Barcelona has top-notch players in that position. They have very good squads and clubs seek positions where they are less filled. I understand that entirely. I moved to Leverkusen, and I'm content here. I'm experiencing a blissful time, and it has been a fantastic journey so far."
Grimaldo's contract with Leverkusen extends until 2027, but a transfer to Real Madrid, should they show interest, remains a tantalizing possibility.

Behind the Scenes
Rumors circulate about potential suitors for Grimaldo, including Liverpool, Bayern Munich, and Arsenal, as well as Newcastle United, all with distinct focuses on his defensive or attacking abilities. However, as of now, Real Madrid has not been specifically linked to Grimaldo's transfer interest.
In the realm of highly talented footballers, Grimaldo might catch the eye of Real Madrid if they seek to strengthen their left-back position, especially considering their pursuit of Alphonso Davies. But, until further notice, any lucid information about Madrid's intentions remains nascent.
