The Brazilian market is one that Real Madrid have exploited on numerous occasions in recent years, signing the likes of Vinicius Junior, Rodrygo Goes and Endrick Felipe. They are looking again in their search for a long-term right-back, a position that is becoming essential for Florentino Perez.
Dani Carvajal and Lucas Vazquez are both reaching the twilight of their respective careers, and currently, there is no obvious successor for one of the other. That could be about to change, like AS Diary they reported that Real Madrid shows a strong interest in Pedro Lima from Sport Recife.
However, Chelsea are considered to be in pole position to sign the 17-year-old, who can be signed for €6-7m. Real Madrid are behind in the race, but they can look to take advantage of any slip-ups the Premier League giants make.
Signing Lima would make a lot of sense Real Madrid, as they will need a new right-back in the next two years. They need to rely on beating Chelsea in the race, although they did exactly that when they signed Endrick.
