Jurrien Timber has been one of the best defenders in the Premier League since joining Arsenal, and Real Madrid are prepared to make a move for him in the summer.

The 24-year-old is an indispensable asset for the London club, and they do not want to lose him. They are hoping to tie him down to a new deal. However, a lucrative proposal could prompt them to consider a sale in the summer. According to a report from SportsBoom, the player could be sold if an offer of €85-100 million is presented in the summer.

Real Madrid needs a reliable right back, especially with Dani Carvajal in the twilight stages of his career. There is no doubt that the Netherlands defender would be an exceptional addition for them. He could prove to be a more reliable option at the back compared to Trent Alexander-Arnold. The former Liverpool star has blown hot and cold since joining the Spanish club, and he is not a guaranteed starter for Real Madrid. They are exploring other options in the market, and it is no surprise that they are keen on the Arsenal star.

The 24-year-old is entering the peak years of his career, and this could be the right time for Real Madrid to snap him up. The opportunity to join the Spanish club could be exciting for the defender as well. Real Madrid is widely regarded as the biggest club in the world.

Timber would be too expensive

Meanwhile, they have the financial resources to pay the asking price for the defender. However, it would be a very expensive addition, especially given that he is a right-back. Real Madrid needs to improve in central defence, central midfield, and the attack. Spending around €100 million on a right back would be a bit of a surprise.

It remains to be seen how the situation develops over the next few weeks. At this stage, Real Madrid have yet to register their interest, and they have not submitted any official proposal. Arsenal will be hoping to take advantage of the situation and secure his long-term future quickly. Time will tell whether the defender is prepared to turn down the opportunity to move to La Liga and sign a long-term deal with the Premier League club.
