ToggleSaliba’s reputation as one of Europe’s premier centre-backs has skyrocketed over the past two years, thanks to his stellar performances in both domestic and European competitions for Arsenal. According to Spanish outlet , the Spanish giants are ready to lure him away from North London as they require defensive reinforcements.

To lure Saliba away from Arsenal, Real Madrid may have to pay a staggering fee of at least £83 million, which would set a new world record for a defender. The current record is held by Harry Maguire, who moved to Manchester United for £80 million in 2019.
It has been suggested that Real Madrid have already made preliminary inquiries with Saliba’s representatives and have received an encouraging response. However, the deal’s success will hinge on Arsenal’s willingness to part ways with their star defender, who has been a key figure in Mikel Arteta’s squad.
Despite the rumours, Saliba has publicly expressed his commitment to Arsenal. The 22-year-old signed a contract extension last summer, tying him to the club for the next two-and-a-half years. Speaking last month, Saliba reaffirmed his loyalty to the Gunners, stating, “I feel at home here. I signed for the club five years ago but it’s only my third season and I’m enjoying everything — the players, staff and fans."
