Real Madrid are confident enough in their chances of signing Leny Yoro that they don't feel the need to work on alternatives. The Blancos have been linked with the Bologna defender Riccardo Calafioriwith his stock rising rapidly in Euro 2024, but they are not moving for him.
This is second Matteo Moretto, who explained that Los Blancos are only working on an agreement for Yoro, and are doing everything they can to bring the exciting French. Calafiori, 22, has had an excellent season with Bologna, and former manager Thiago Motta is looking to take Juventus as well.
The rumored price could be a sum of 40 million euros, but the Bianconeri, despite having agreed personal terms with Calafiori, have seen the competition unravel since the start of the Euros. Arsenal have already inquired about his future, and more Premier League clubs are expected to be interested in him. With Yoro committed to making a move to the Santiago Bernabeu, Real Madrid are putting all their eggs in their basket.
